Dorms Needed... (Continued from page 1) ered for the 1969-71 period, but it is way down on the State Board of Higher Education’s priority list,” said Barnhart. The University maintains six dormitories, accommodating 3, 143 students, mostly in double rooms. Seventy-eight beds are rented to VISTA on a special student rate. Carson Hall, built about 19 years ago, with a capacity of 320 students, is the oldest. Hamilton Hall, with 832 students in 10 units, is the largest. Bean Hall, housing 736 students in eight units, is the newest. In the fall term of 1966 (this year’s figures are not available) the number of male and fe male student? was approximate ly equal. The same charter also shows there were 2,147 Oregon students living in the dorms. California led other states by placing 471 students in the dorms. Second on the list was Lacking...

I was run out of too many places in Mississippi.” Harris is now facing a three year prison sentence for open ly resisting ihe Selective Serv ice System and openly advocat ing resistance by others. Miss Baez has long been ac tive in non-violent movements and has devoted much of her income from concerts to the sponsorship of an Institute for the Study of Non-violent Action. In addition to her political activities, Miss Baez has been acclaimed by music critics at the Newport Folk Festival as “fresh” and “original.” Her music “transcends pol itics” in the words of the pub lic relations director of the ASUO Social Division, a co - sponsor with the Campus Draft Committee of the concert. Tickets for the concert are available at the EMU main desk and Mattox Pipe Shop. Harris’s speech is free of charge. 440 Coburg Road (THE VILLA ROMA) Washington with 87 students. Hawaii, the youngest state in the nation, had 45. Canada had 35 while the number from all other countries was 107. Answering the question about the cost per student in the dorm, Barnhart said it costs between five to six thousand dollars. “The States does not pay the money. The dorms are financed by the selling of gen eral obligation bonds and dor mitory fees students pay. Of the money a student pays per year, more than $200 are used to pay the bond and interest,” said Barnhart. In the coming year, Barnhart estimated, the University will pay $632,000 for the dormitories. “It takes between 25 to 30 years to pay off a whole com plex,” Barnhart further stated. “The dorm occupancy in Michigan and Ohio State Uni versities is low and we must be careful so we don’t have empty dorms around here,” said Barnhart. By way of summary, Barn - hart said if there were space in the dorms, the housing office would have placed about 300 more students this year. At the moment, there are still more than 100 upperclassmen on the waiting list. “We have no way of finding how many would have applied after the final day of applica tion,” concluded Barnhart. Op Cit Director Sought by ASUO Director Zed Crawley of Op eration Citizenship (Op-Cit.), has resigned from his position leaving it open for petitioners. Other activities, said Crawley, make it difficult for him to continue as director. Op-Cit is an ASUO program which deals with student-initi ated community projects. One of these projects is a summer visit by students to Mexico. During the school year com munity service projects are ini tiated to raise money for such visits. Also, this summer ten stu dents participated in a Cot tage Grove recreation program. Some of the organizations that operate through Op-Cit are Community Action and Migrant Labor programs. Qualifications for the director ship include being a full-time student at the University and being interested in working long hours in community proj ects. SICK'S MUSIC CITY Welcome Back ...

There were 40,000 to 50,000 volumes in the prison library, director William Pahrman said. “It took us years and years to get them,” he sighed, “and they were destroyed in just hours.” The prison runs educational programs at grade school, high school and college levels. Near ly 40 per cent of all inmates are in one of these programs, Pahrman said, the same number as before the riot. That percentage is “quite high” in comparison with other penitentiaries, Pahrman said. The greatest need is for grade school level texts Pahrman stressed, although all types of educational books are needed. There are 79 inmates on their way to earning an eighth grade diploma, Pahrman said. There are 124 inmates working on high school diplomas in the prison program, he continued. He add ed that 79 more inmates are following a self-study course at either the grade or high school levels. One hundred inmates are earning college credits, trans ferrable to any Oregon state school, through the prison pro gram, and another 170 inmates are taking college correspond ence programs, Pahrman said. Reference books and books of “general interest” are needed, as well as text books, he said. Persons wishing to donate books should mail them to the Oregon State Penitentiary Warehouse in Salem, he said. He also asked that senders first call him at 364-6851, ext. 312, to notify him. Persons with no books to do nate may help the pentitentiary by writing the Oregon State Leg islature and asking to give the prison education programs ‘ enough money to get our feet back on the ground,” Pahrman said, adding, “I’m tired of ply wood partitioned classrooms.” The Oregon Daily Emerald is pub lished Monday thru Friday, Septem ber to May, except during exam and vacation periods.

How can it help me? If you could read at least three times faster* think of all the extra time you could devote to your studies, as well as the things you would like to do, but never have the time for! It would mean the end of all of those frantic hours at the end of the term trying to catch up on your reading, you wouldn't have to burn the midnight oil anymore, and the fact of retaining more of what you read could cut a lot of time out of those review seminars before midterms. But reading faster isn't all.
