New policies
being considered
by Campus Safety
by Erin Haick
In response 10 the heavily•
a11cnckd C•mpus Safety Fo­
rum and the dcba1c abou1 1he
appropnotcncss ol ol f-campus
patrols, some ch:inges and
some policy clarifica11ons
h3,ve been proposed and arc m
re\.1ew. These rev1su,1ns arc de­
signed 10 create clear guide­
hnc., an<l rhmmatc. contusion
about the Campus Safety
patrol"s jurisdic,ion.
The cont rovcrsy n:volvcs
around a box ho,c<e r,any 1ha1
occurred only a few weeks
1mo the school year. In that
ms1ancc, ~ 011npus Safety of­
ficer suspected that illegalities
may have occurred al an oll­
campus party. This p<.rson
took down license plate num•
bcrs for cars p:trktd near the
box house and used them to
justify claims of underage
drinking to 1hc Oregon Liquor
Con1r.ol Commission
(OLCC}. These plate numbers
wen, later matched whh their
owners. an<l letters frowning
on the party were delivered to
thost owners who were un ..
derage.
Many Studcnt.s were out­
raged over what they called
'Gestapo-like. bch:ivior• from
the Campus Safc1y patrols.
and the fact that. at 1hc time.
and even now, there is no spc~
cific policy for policing off­
campus occurTences. Jon
Eldridge, Director of Resi•
dcncc Life, has proposed sev-crJl new guideline!!> Lhat would
create such a policy.
Previously. officers who
suspected tliat an off-campus
pariy might lead to illegal be­
hnv1or (mmors imoxlCatcd.
vandahsm,and o,hers) had no
clear procedure to follow con­
cerning 1h1s gathering of Sill·
dents. This ambiguity led to
frustr.nions between .s1utlentS
and Campus Safety officers
when those ofnccrs took steps
to break up p;irt1cs. The pro·
posed policy would detail that
,f, ln the course of normal du•
1,cs. Campus Safety 0U1ccrs
were 10 become aw:ire of prob­
lems involving Lewis & Clark
students at an off-campus J<,.
cation. they would comnct the
appropriate agenl-y and let 1h:11
agency take its own course of
action. In the policy proposal,
Eldridge said ,hot ofnccrs who
suspect illegal ac1ivi1ics would
"do what any 01hcr neighbor
would likely due and contact
Portland Police Bureau ancVor
OLCC."
The proposed policies
would also specify, hat ·omc­
crs will no, seek out problems
or otherwise patrol in the
nc.ighborhoods surrounding
the College. except in circum·
stances such as prolonged
power ou1age, landl natllrnl
disaster". This is not a change
£rom currem protocol
These propos:,ls arc s1ill be­
ing considered by Campus
Safe1y, with a decision possi­
bly comtng in early spring se•
mcster. Above, Lewis & Clark students help to
block an intersection as part of the large
protest against the World Trade
Organization in downtown Seattle on
Tuesday, Nov. 30. To the left. one of many
hundred police officers lets protesters
know who's sheriff in this town. LC
students. easilfspotted in their bright red
t-shirts. had been organizing weeks prior
to the event, going through fegal trainings
and teach-ins. learning more about the
effects of the WTO and how to protest
most effectively. Many were prepared for
arrest. although as of Tuesday evening.
no one from LC had been arrested. Most
left Portland early Monday evening.
returning in time for classes on
Wednesday. Over 100 students traveled
to Seattle to participate in the action and
rejoiced with the news that the WTO
meeting had been delayed because of
protester's efforts.

Poet Primus St. John reads for his alma mater
by Morgan Keller
On Thursday, Nov. JS. at
8:00pm Lewis & Clark profes­
sors and students \VC1comed a
familiar pocl to 1hc Armstrong
Lounge ol the Manor I-louse.
Primus St.John. one of the most
eminent poets ;n America 1od:1y.
w:is Introduced b)' [cllow pub­
lished poet and professor. Vern
Rutsala. As an alumnus, St.John
needed hulc introduction to the
college he graduated from )'cars
ago.
Hailing from New York City.
St. John graduated with an En­
glish major in the '60s and ex­
plored life as a lab-Orer, gambler,
and civil servant before seulmg
as a professor of htcraturc and
crea1ivc writing at Portland State
University. for the past twenty•
six years, St. John has taught at
PSU while writing poetry prolifi­
cally. He has wrillcn two books
or poems including Skins Oil Ilic
E11rrh and Love is Nor a Consoli•
tlatio11; It is a Lighr. His lates1
collection cmulcd Communion,
au empts 10 encapsulate the best
of his past work as well as lus
latest poems and 1s considered
by Pro lessor Rutsala to be St.
John's nncsl achievcancn,.
The first poem St. John read ,, ____ _
St. John is the winner
of the Oregon Book
Award for Poetry and
the author of three
books. _____ ,,
was "Obsessions nrc Important, ..
a playful and erotic love poem
he wrote in rcLahauon l0 his
wife's t:onstam qucsuonlng of
lhc comem of poems he wrote
wHh her as the muse. After hear·
ing other lync poems with the
same love theme such as "Ripe•
and "The Wily Cover Thief Tale"
it was evident that St.John's love
poetry lilted with 1he same
clever passion characLcristic of
the love poems of Chilean poet
Pablo Neruda, also wrote love
poems for his wife, Matilde.
St, John shared a story for
practkally every poem he read.
.. Ripe," for example, was written
ongmally for 111s wife but when
he was asked hy a lady who
needed a few lines for promot­
ing her salsa produ<t, he lei her
use the final lines of the poem: I
<1111 after your oils/ mid your juices
/ tl1e rhings 1/tat uw/,e my sl:i11 I
1in,~lc 011CI my eyes burn. "The Wily Cover Thief Talc" was ex­
plained as St. John's vindicanon
for when his wire accused him
of stealing all the bed covers. He
wrote the poem as victim or the
"cover thief ... a creature who
aggravates marriages by stealing
a II l he covers. St. John even
wrote a poem published 111 the
Pioneer Log years ago when the
foumain on lower camp\lS was
still 0owing. The Edi1or-in-Ch1d
or the newspaper al that umc
was pressmg St. John with a
strict outhne for the poem. The
poem had 10 include the words
•,vater'" and "spring," On very
shon notice St. John wrote the
poem in the link time he had
the day before the deadline.
However. when he had finished
the poem he realized he had !or­
goucn to include spring and so
he ended the poem with the line:
Anti roday is spring.
Besides being an exemplary
l)'Tical poet.St.John also proved
himself as a mas<er of the
lengthy narrative poem. St.John
read his most famous poem.
"Dreamer," a long complex
poem wirh many allusions 10
other texts much like T.S. Eliot's
"Wasteland.• "Dreamer• is not
only a very well wrluen and
i'Omplcx pocrn, bu1 more impor-tantly a poem in which St.John
aucmp1s Lo epitomize lhc

tors through the St0ry of John
Newton, a captain or a slave-ship
who finds spirilual rebirth in
ab-Olitiomsm and the Anglican
m1111stry. St. John wro1c
"Dreamer'" during a sojourn to
Barbados where he thoroughl)'
researched Newton"s journals
and biographical essays.
Newton's spiritual rebirth also
inspired him to amhor one or
America's most famous hymns,
which many know from Jimi
lie11drix's electric rendition,
"A1naz.ing Grace:.'" Communion
comes with The Textual No1rs ro
Dreamer in a consolidated form

in the poem.
St. John ended the reading
with ,mother or his lengthy nar­
nui vc poems which was in•
tended 10 be the title poem !or
Communion but ended up with
the title, "1[ There Were No
Days, Where Would We Live."
Though the poem docs not have
the historical significance
of"Dreamcr," the poem is
equally enthralling in subject,
taken rrom a poignant accoun1
of war [rom one or St John's
rrlends who was a Gtccn BercL. ,, ____ _
John Newton's spiri­
tual rebirth also in­
spired him to author
one of America's
most famous hymns,
which many know
from Jimi Hendrix's
electric rendition,
"Amazing Grace." _____ ,,
This final pocrn, Communion,
leaves the reader craving mort
or St. John's work, especially
since the poem ends "lo /,econ,

Already the winner of an Or­
