Members of the guest panel at the workshop expressed concern about the viabilility of the new Ethnic Studies department to Chicano students Araoldo Vento of the University of Michigan called the program “very weak”. ‘They talk about creating new courses, but where are the minority faculty.” “If Chicanos can get a department now, there’s no reason to have a weaker structure,” he said. Several members of the panel feared that the interdepartmental structure of the program would force minority courses to conform to the wishes of the particular department. Lila Gonzalez, University of California at Berkeley, said the only solution will be a depart ment which is “autonomous and self-determining.’’ “My experience is that an interdepartmental approach is almost doomed to failure. I haven’t seen a program yet which hasn’t failed.” She criticised President Clark for “divide and conquer tactics” in forcing the various minorities to fight over which courses will be included in Ethnic Studies. Chairer of the Ethnic Studies Committee Paul Simonds felt the group was wrong in demanding a separate department for Chicanos. While admitting that interdepartmental scheduling was a financial compromise, he expressed the need for minorities to have a unified backing of the Ethnic Studies program. “It is important that there continue to be in teraction between communities,” he said, “that they don’t set themselves off from one another.” Winter program provides adventure Stressing that learning and not teaching is important in the Cascade Winter College and the University’s Outdoor r-ragram, Gary Grimm, the program director, spoke of the goal of being a “common adventurer” in a recent interview. The common adventure can occur in a variety of winter ac tivities which the Program has planned. Included are ski touring, ski mountaineering and winter camping. In addition, Grimm spoke of the hope of developing some fine winter photography during the session. The concept allows for vir tually unlimited activities on the trips. Snowshoeing, snow and ice climbing, wilderness survival ana snow cave and igloo con struction are among the ac tivities to be conducted through individual and group decision making. Grimm says, “Everyone is a common ad venturer wbo is expected to be totally accountable for his own learning.” This is the third year of Cascade Winter College, and by all indications it will be the most popular one so far. The first activity was held last weekend, involving tent camping and snow cave construction at Santiam Pass. Grimm estimates that from 35 to 40 people showed up. This was more than expected, “but by r-" CO U PO N —-— i TACO TIME Tacos Reg. 40' now a on,y 30c crisp corn tortilla, with our lean ground beef, cheese, crisp lettuce, and tomatoes. 1 taco per coupon watch for next week's special coupon good Mon, Tues, & Wed, Jan 22, 23, 24th -COUPON saSSSSSSSi good at all three locations: 13th and High 1060 River Road 2nd & South “A", Spring.

Food and equipment is handled on an individual basis but groups may combine their efforts and share in the preparations. A few outings will require community or group equipment and this cost is ab sorbed by the group. More than a dozen trips are planned in the next two months, and Grimm suggests that in terested persons stop by the Outdoor Program Center, Room 23 near the leading zone of the Erb Memorial Union ..They may sign up on the appropriate trip sheet which describes the trip, dates, times, costs and equip ment needed. A pre-trip meeting is usually so that everyone can discuss the outing and be active in the preparations. ■9MWS*^ «S5f“
