Among the other programs are: Cosmopolitan student Association This is a club which won the Eugene Mayor’s Award in 1966 for its achievement in fostering cross-cultural exchanges and international understanding. Membership in the club is open to all interested persons in the University and the Eugene communities. It encourages contact among Americans and foreign students in an informal way through socio-cultural and educational activities. The club is funded by ASUO and it does not charge any membership fees. Active members of the club may attend some of the activities sponsored by the club at reduced rates. An International dinner is planned for the current academic year and many other social activities. Isaiah Obot, from Nigeria, is the president of the club. More information about the club can be received by calling 686-4387 or 342-2796. The club has an office space in room 312 of the EMU. Child Care and Development Center Workers at the ASUO Child Care and Development Center explored this summer the possibility of creating an in terdisciplinary training program in child development and day care service design. The aim of such a curriculum is to give the student a knowledge of academic and community-based services: research and teaching skills, program design capabili ties and a background in com munity needs. “The program,” Kathi Balk, 1971-72 director, stated, “would work toward expanding day care services in the state to meet the real and growing needs for child care. We’d like to provide field and outreach services by using the center as the first training site and then by setting up day care centers in rural, suburban and urban areas.” The center, located at 1511 Moss St., 686-4384, is an ASUO program whereby students receive credit through the ESCAPE program for practicum child care work. Draft and Military Information Center The objective of the Draft and Military Information Center is to provide information and coun seling to those students who face the military draft. The center, which is located in IB EMU, provides information on Selective Service laws, enlist ment, student deferments, conscientious objection, resistance and non-registration, prison and emigration to foreign countries. ^^noTobysandr a Peterson A worker in the ASUO Child Care and Development Center helps a youngster to read. Names of doctors and lawyers who can help answer student questions on the draft are also available at the DMIC. Legal Services Center Students in need of legal advice can contact the ASUO Legal Services Center, located in 307 EMU. The center is staffed by Springfield attorney Robert Ackerman, who says his office can provide students with advice on almost any legal problem, excluding litigation. Another attorney will join the legal staff this fall. Minority unions Three minority student unions are funded by the ASUO. They are: —Black Student Union (BSU), located in 15 EMU, telephone ext. 4379. LeFrancis Arnold is BSU president. —Chicano Student Union (CSU), located in 1 EMU, telephone ext. 3508. Margarita Tavera is CSU president. —Native American Student Union, located in 14 EMU, telephone est 3723. Emery Mattz is NASU president. Student Community Projects The goal of Student Community Projects (SCP) is to help new student-initiated community service projects get off the ground. If a project seems to offer a needed service to the community and is well thought-out, SCP provides the project with minimal funding, office space, advice and certain supplies and services of the University at a reduced cost. International Education Center The ASUO International Education Center is a student travel information agency in volved in International programming on campus and in the community. More than 25 volunteers work at furthering IEC’s goal of international un derstanding. This goal is accomplished in many different ways. As a student traveler information agency, people who are planning on traveling, living, studying and t working abroad, have the op portunity to use the extensive library and reference materials that IEC maintains and con tinually up-dates. Information concerning all aspects of travel to, from and within all parts of the world is available from the IEC. Through travel, people have the opportunity to experience new horizons. Through contact with people, cultures and governments of other countries an understanding develops. Showdown looms between senate • • • (Continued from Page 14) power in this area, but said, “You never know. There are going to be some new people in the fall senate,” Noviek said, “The main principle here is that the senate is the ultimate arbiter of legislation in the ASUO, and, as such, it really can’t afford to give out any specific dispensations in the balance of power. “It will be a close fight,” said Noviek. “I would guess, strictly from a personal viewpoint, that the legislation the governing committee draws up will be fairly similar to that that was proposed by the program directors. But there is some chance that it will be quashed outright. If the senate feels very insulted, or if it feels that the life.of the senate is being threatened, it isn’t going to bend over back wards to some power group.” The senate is not the only group that feels threatened. The program directors, upset over a remark by Senator Kent Anderson that “This (the drug center cutback) sets a precedent,” are very worried.
