Wheelchair students
get Fishbowl access
Wheelchair-confined students probably will be able to
use one of the elevated portions of the EMU Fishbowl next
term, says University planner David Rowe.
A wheelchair lift is being added to the elevated portion of
the Fishbowl near the EMU Main Lobby.
Construction should be completed “in a couple of weeks
or so," Rowe says. “The only thing we need to get now is an
eleva+or permit from the state."
The $5,000 for the project are funds left over from the
Fishbowl remodeling completed during Christmas vacation,
Rowe says. Like other handicapped-access facilities on
campus, the lift will be key-operated.
The steps next to the lift will have to be perpendicular to
the lift rather than parallel as originally planned, Rowe says.
"The building inspector doesn’t want any toes squished
by the lift as it lowers somebody to ground level."

Caine denies resignation
Rumors that Athletic Director John Caine is
leaving the University are simply that — rumors.
The rumors, which began to circulate Sunday
after the Oregonian reported that Caine was
being forced out of his job, were sluffed off by
Caine, the Athletic Department and the University
administration Monday.
“Rumors fly constantly on a person in my
positon, and you never know who that source is,”
said Caine. The University administration is not
pressuring him to leave, he added.
The Oregonian quoted an unnamed source
as saying that “Caine is gone. All that’s left is the
timing of the move."
The source said that Ray Hawk, University
vice president for administration and finance, and
Ralph Sunderland, University budget director,
were “making every effort to force him (Caine) to
resign.
“They’ve put pressure on him, and it's not as
it appears. They’re just making him a scapegoat

essential to the job
“If you can’t work with people, you’re dead,”
Hanlin says.
Versatility is also a prerequisite.
"We re looking for a jack of all trades," says
University housing director Dan Williams. "Some
one who’ll have an abundance of good sense,
self-confidence and judgement.”
Those skills come in handy when dealing with
the many hassles RAs encounter. One of the
toughest parts of an RA's job, Hanlin says, is
developing good rapport with residents without
losing their respect.
RAs begin training for their jobs in mid
September before the residents arrive For eight
to nine hours a day, they attend meetings and
workshops on everything from fire safety to crisis
for their own inadequacies."
Hawk denied the rumors
Caine also said there has been no tension
between himself and the University administration
that would create any question about his status at
the University.
"The Oregonian has provided a forum for
someone to take pot shots at the University and
the Athletic Department without allowing for
rebuttal,” said George Beres, sports information
director.
Reports that the coaches and administration
are working in collusion to force Caine out are
untrue, said Tom Heinonen, women’s track coach
and a member of the coaches’ committee
Heinonen also said that the article was in
accurate in reporting the coaches’ committee
consisted only of coaches from sports slated for
elimination. “It’s not a group of the coaches who
are going to be cut but rather all 20 coaches
representing all 20 sports."
counseling, with time off in the evenings to
socialize with the people they'll work with.
Once students enter the dorms, the RAs' real
work begins. They must check in some seven
dozen students, arrange initial dorm meetings,
direct lost students, organize refrigerator and
swivel chair purchases and handle room switches
and homesick freshmen.
And this year all applicants must attend one
of at least three informational meetings.
The first meeting will be held tonight at 7 p.m.
in the University Inn main lounge Two other
meetings are scheduled for 7 p.m. Wednesday in
Sheldon Hall Lounge, and for 7 p.m. Thursday in
the Bean West Conference Room.
Applications are available at the University
Housing Office in the Walton Complex.
