Not a snow day
Snow covered the LC campus early on the morning of Wednesday Feb. 10.
However, to some students' dismay, school continued uninterrupted. In next
week's issue of the Pioneer Log, we'll explore the process behind cancelling
school as a result of inclement weather.
Students expand boundaries of education

Letters to the Editor
An open letter from the
Student Bar Association
on parking fees
Dear Pres1<lcm Mooney:
The following resolution was
passed unanimously by the Stu­
denl Bar Association on Fcbru•
ary 7. We wou Id appreciate a
response before I he next Board
of Trustees meeting.
Student Bor Association
Non hwestem School of I.aw of
Lewis & Clark College Resolu­
tion Regarding Parkmg Fees
Whereas the Executive Coun·
c.il or Lewis & Clark College,
with the mtenl or reducing
drive-alone commuting. has re­
ccn I I y implcmenled parking
fees~
Whereas carpooling is by
definition an altemative to drive•
a.lone commuting:
Whereas the Transportation
Advisory Group, the Student Bar
Association. the Associated Sm­
denis of Lewis & Clark, 1he law
faculty. and Coalition Acl"ocat·
ing Transportation Scnsibil11y
have all unanimously rccom•
mended free carpooling pem1i1s;
Whereas the fee for residen­
tial parking pem1its has been set
al exactly one-half that or drive•
alone commuter permits;
Because selling carpooling
permit fees at a rate exactly one­
hair that or drive-alone com­
muter permits represc111s a fair
comprom1sc between providing
carpooling permits for free and
providing thcrn at the same cost
as drive.alone commmer per­
mits;
We, the representatives of the
law school student body, resolve
10 recommend that I he Execu­
tive Council adopt n schedule
that sets recs for carpooling per•
mils at cxacLI)' one-half that of drh1c-alonc commmer permits,
\Ve further recommend that.,
in ~ccorclance whh this resolu­
tion, lhc currenl fee ofSlOO per
semester for c:1rpoo1mg pcnnns
be reduced 10 S75 per semester,
exactly one-hair 1hc currcm fee
ol S 150 per semester for dnvc­
alone commmer pcmuts, cffcc•
tive Fall 1999.
Studclll Bar Associatioo
Student groups have the
right to organize and
receive funding
The pro/con section or last
week's Pioneer Log left me won­
dering what exactly was being
debated. Both Colin Beck and
Gene Wixson seemed 10 agree
that many student organizations
at Lewis & Clark are misusing
the runds they receive from the
$95 per student fee. They want
student groups to be held ac­
coumable for fnvolous spend­
ing. Beck asserted that one or the
reasons the student fee had to be
raised by $5 is because of the
number of "ineffective·· student
groups on campus and that
maybe we should consider get•
Ling rid of student rec funding
for these groups. Among the
groups Colin deems ineffective
are the "unfortunatc.ly small"
Black Student Uruon and the "al­
most invisible" foreign language
clubs.
While I agree with Colin Beck
that student groups should be
held accountable for their ASLC
funded budgets, I also believe
that there should be many di­
verse student interests repre­
sented in our student fee. Who
decides what is effective and
what lsn·t? How could we ever
hope for the Black Student Umon 10 get larger if we cut thcfr
funds? The right of s1t1clcnts 10
orgamz.c and receive funding lS
c.ssenlial lO Lhc LC communtty.
rhcrc arc very rl!w $\Utlcnts on
the LC campus thnt came 10 this
small, liberal ans college just 10
go 10 class. The current studcn l
fee system is the only reason we
arc able 10 get involved m such
diverse groups as United
Sexualities, Circle K, or the fenc­
ing club, Without the student
fee, many of these groups sim­
ply could not cxi.st. SEED could
not promote environmental ~·
sponsibility, we couldn't iake any
Free Universily classes, and
OSPIRG students and staff could
not tackle statewide pollution
problems and campaign 11nancc
reform.
Each or these groups !ulfills
its own very important role on
campus and in 1he community.
Only S95 or our annual S19,176
in tuition and fees goes 10 sup­
pon these groups and events
that arc essential to the college
community we call Lewis &
ClaTk. To lose it would be a big
mistake.

AppaTCnlly ii was based, llke
all good Christian holidays, on
a pagan festival. In France and
England people celebrated the
middle of February as the

the air rang \\at.h 1hc sounds
of swallows singmg the btrd

the day was "whan every foul

up on t.he pagan tradition and
incorporated the pre-existing
c~remony as anQLher saint's
day. As I understand the St.
Valentine. legend, Valentine
was a priest In Rome while
Chns1ian11y was still illegal
there. He was known in the
town for t.he secret Christian
weddmgs he officiated over.

In a word-Hallmark. Earlier
in the century. Hallmark ran­
domly staned promoting the
celebration of this obscure
holiday, making Valentine's
Day mainstream and boosting
the sale or Hallmark brand
cards. As with mothers' and
fathers· day. !he Hallmark Cor­
poration just pulled this ont
ouua their collective ass. And
as much as we would like to
think we're above corpormc

pcrfonncrs would be judged on
their music alone, not their
looks; the arts would receive
more funding than the military~
and we'd get paid to go 10 col­

Unfortunately, we do not live

tising, where even that an:h-con­

The Eroica Trio-comprised
of Enka Nickrenz, piano; Adela

Sant'Ambrogio, cello-has
quickly emerged as part of a new
generation of hipper, sexier clas•
sical musicians known as much
for their attire as for their musi­
cal prowess. Their performance
al Agnes Flanagan chapel last
Friday, however, proved that
their fame is based on much
more than good looks.
With explosive feeling, the
group opened with a trio by Rob-en Schumann. Their grand ges­
tures and expressive faces dem•
onstrated a passionate, if somc­
timcsover-the•top, involvement
with the pieces. In Schumann's
Trio No. I in D minor, Op. 63.
the group at times seemed over­
whelmed by emotion, as they
alternated moods. easily moving
from triumphant to mournful
with passionate intensity.
The second piece lightened
the concert atmosphere with
George Gershwin's classical yet
swanky blues arrangement. The
group embellished Gc_rshwin's
playful melodies with zest and
Oair.
Finally, a six .. movement t..rio
by A ntonfn Dvorak was layered
,vith nch solos for each of the
performers.
The encore was a smooth ren•
dition of •oanny Boy" that left
the crowd feeling good on 1he
way out.
Ultimately, people come to a
concert ror more than jus1 mu ..
sic-they come also for show­
manship. At their pcrfom1ance
the Eroica Trio proved they cm
entertain with good looks. but
more importantly, with excellent
mus1da.nship.

Men's basketball team cuts down the Loggers
,, ...
' Cheered on by
their fans, the
Pioneers come
from behind to
earn a hard-won
victory
by Dave Kolek
The Pioneers returned home
to Pamplin Sports Center Feb. 5
to lo.kc on conference rival Uni•
versity of Puget S011 nd ,fter a
previous weekend of difficult
awon. After losmg 1wo cr11cial
conference match-ups which
placed LCs playoff hopes in
jeopardy. the Pioneers were in
need of a victory 10 boost both
morale and confidence. They got
both in a 6S-60 victory against
the Loggers in front of 400 sup­
portive fans.
To say the leas,. ,his one
started out slowly for the Pio­
neers. They struggled in almost
every facet of the game. Their
shooting was abysmal. making
just 25 percent or 1hcir shots in
the Orsl 1wen1y minutes or 1he
game. To mtikc mauers worse,
no one was willing to c.rash the
boards for a second chance op•
ponuni1y. After a miss, or which
there were many, a squadron or
Loggers surrounded every re­
bound without a single Oash of
Pioneer onmgc to be seen.
Despite e,,,erimcntation with
different line-ups. including all
too bncf appearances by Chance
Gilford. Mike Slone, and Todd Mcyerdlng, Coach Bob Gaillard
could no1 nnd the right chemis­
try. After 10 minutes of play, LC
was I railing by 1he unbelievable
margin of 25•6.
Though Pioneer fans ,re the
Inst group of people one would
expect to boo their home team;"'
one could hear a smattering or
frustra1ed JC(TS cn,annting from
crowd when Gaillard called a
Lime ou1 10 staunch the bleeding
of 1he l9 point deficit.
No one but the players know
what Gaillard said during this
two minute bre~-1k. bUt one tan
certainly speculate. Perhaps he
was calmly laying out a concise
s1r31cgy w cut the deficit 10 less
than ten by halftime, in order LO
be within striking distance. Or
maybe he was reminding 1hem
10 box out for rebounds and keep
shooting 1he ball.
Whatever ii was he said had
some affect on the players. some
shots finally s1aned falling for
the Pioneers, and more impor­
tantly some rebounds. both of­
fensive and defensive, began to
find their way into 1he hands of
hard workers like Scott Davis
and Troy Burrows. By the time
the half came 10 a close. LC was
back in the game only trailing by
ten, 30-20.
Sophomore leaper Kyle Kiang
provided the most sp•rkling
glimmer In the Orst half, albeit
an unorncial one. Kiang broke
free for a breakaway and from
jus1 inside I he free throw line. he
soarecl in and slammed d0wn
two poims. That was. until one
10 Pioneer Log February 12, 1999 ol the officials ruinccl everyones
fun by ruling 1h31 Kiang had
taken too m,ny steps. and nul­
lified 1hc basket. It was that kind
of a half for 1hc Pioneers.
The second half we111 much
belier for LC. as ,heir offense
came back from the dead. They
were led offensively for the third
comest m a row by freshman
Scou Davis. He scored 23 poi,m
on 8 for 19 shoo1mg on the
night.
They were led emouonally,
however, b)' junior Troy Bur­
rows. The hard-nosed player ,,-----
LC outscored the
Loggers in the second
half by fifteen points
thanks to better ex­
ecution both on de­
fense and offensive. -----,,
who has consistently put on his
hard hat to pull down rebounds
for the Pioneers. leading the
squad in tha1 category in five
different games this year, was a
crucial spark for the lackadaisi•
c,I Pioneers.
Burrows answered some
physical play by a Logger
clcfenseman with a protecuvc
elbow. The Logger fell over as if
Burrows had clubbed him whh
a sledgehammer.
This bit or Hollywood acting
garnered the officials attention
and Burrows was assessed a per• sonal foul. Soon 1he 1wo play­
ers began to jaw a1 each other.
3.J'l<l Burrows more: than stood
his ground in the verbal •her­
c.ation. So much so that his rnn•
ning mate. Kiang had 10 physi­
cally rcsuain Burrows before he
ganlcrcd any more aucn1ion
from 1hc referees such as a tech­
nical foul.
Unfortunately for the Log­
gers. they had tried 10 intimi•
date the wrong person. From
that point on, ii see.med as if
Burrows was on a mission. Whh
('yes as wide as saucers. and a
look that could have bored
through steel, he galvanized a
defensive a11ack which forced
1he Loggers into several key
mistakes down the stretch.
LC outscored the Loggers in
1 he second half by fifteen point5
thanks to beuer execution both
on defense and offensive.
Nevcnhelcss. the game still
ca.me down to the \\'ITC. The
1997-98 Pioneer squad docs 001
seem c..'lpable of a stress-free vie•
tory this season. Indeed. it has
been a year of thrilling closing
minute. victories. and several
crushing crunch time losses.
Wilh less than two minmcs
rcmainmg In 1he game, the Pio­
neers had the ball trailing by
one. Leave 11 LO Bt1rrows to pro­
vide the exclamation poim for
this game. \Vlth the ball ai the
top of the key he l,unched a
three pomter wilh supreme
confidence. As II ripped
through the net for 1he crucial
go-ahead basket, there was not a trace of• smile on his face. Was
Burrows disappointed I he Pio•
nccrs had had 10 struggle so
m\1ch for 1hc v1cu1ryl
"No1 really." he s.~icl later. "I
wasm really thinking 10 much
about tltatal the time. I wnsjus1
thinking that we really needed
a not her stop before we cou lei
relax."
The Pioneers got that stop
and held on for the five point
victory againsuhc 5-12 Loggers.
Davis was awarded for his
strong performance wi1h a sec­
ond consecutive NWC Athlete
or the Weck award. He has
scored 73 points m the las, three
Pioneer games. and is leading
the team with a 16.5 scoring av­
erage. WiLh 1hc chances of a
play-off appearance fading, the
Pioneers still have a choice on
how their season emfs. They can
focus on upcoming matches
with rivals like Whitworth, Pa­
cific Lutheran University and
George fox. They can put a nice
finish on a season s01ne have la­
beled •a rebuilding year." Or,
they can co,1St to the end of their
season without much of a fight.
The primal look in Burrows eyes
at 1he end o! this game suggests
1ha1 this team has quite a bi1 or
Hght left.

be on Saturday, February

The women's team ,s
young and experience in
college competition 1s lack­
ing. That is not necessarily
a daunling or ncgal1ve as ...
pcc1 to the team. These
women have experience in
their individual events. We
can look forward to strong
performances in the jump
events. The_ veteran on the
team, junior Maile Barrett
will also give us something
to look forward to. Barrett
is coming back this season
as an experienced college
compe1itor. She had an im-pressive 1998 seasou puaiJ1g her
sprinting skills LO work in all the
quick events and she topped her
season off with a trip to Nation­
als in the 100 high hurdles. Says
Barrett or this season, "Even
though we have a very young
team, lam confident that we will
perfom1 well this season."
The men's team has more ex~
perlcncc on the1r side. Senior
Aaron Gibbs has more than
proven his skill and passion for
the sprint and jump events.Jun­
Jor Dan Reichenbach and sopho­
more Lee Thomas will continue
to dominate the throw events
with their powerful presence.
The distance team promises to
be a challenge 10 the conrerence
after an ambitious cross-country
s,ason, led by distance captain
Chris Mayer.
Though small in sfze, both
teams have always done their part 10 create depth during
competition, Tomorrow, 1he
13th, will be the Lewis &

meet will not be scored, but
it will be a valuable oppor­
