Counseling group aids minority students By DEBBIE HOWLETT Of«w EimraM Often times a "counseling” session is thought of as a visit to a "shrink" with a goatee and a leather couch In reality, counseling more often than not helps to educate rather than analyze, says Phyllis Richardson, a counselor at the University Counseling Center. In recent years the direction of coun seling has changed to more of a group experience than an individual encounter The counseling center offers many group sessions in the form of support groups and/or learning experiences. Groups range from a first term student support group to stress management workshops to weight control meetings Richardson, says "we re trying to meet specific student need ” She says the variety of the counseling efforts is a "good start" in that direction She maintains counseling is more of an educational process than most peo ple think "Counseling is about 90 per cent education,” Richardson says Joe Wade, an intern in the counseling center, is heading a group which educates themselves Wade's group, a support group for first term students, is basically a session designed for the "displaced” minority students "They re able to gain strength from association, one with the other,” says Wade He says a lot of the minority students are either from small towns or from very large metropolitan areas and there is a lot of adjustment to be made during the first few terms Wade says the group learns to cope with the everyday situations that arise, having someone of a like culture or background can make all the difference whether a student will succeed or not Wade understands the problems "dis placed" minority students suffer, having left Los Angeles for Corvallis and Oregon State University, himself That transition was enough in itself, but Wade had to also cope with a completely different attitude toward blacks He finds it easy to understand the situations that happen in Eugene Wade says that his support came from a local person who took him under his wing Problems arise because there Is not a large minority population at the Univer sity says Wade, and the black population Is even proportionately smaller Wade says the difference between the minority and the "majority" Is that there is less of an outlet for discussion and interaction with a peer group that shares the same types of problems "It’s tough for a minority to know if they're being discriminated against or if they are receiving the same treatment,' says Wade Wade says the focus of the group is to "have a positive impact on the retention of minority students at the University I Classifieds 686-43431 CLASSIFIED ADS CAN BE PLACED AT ODE OFFICE 300 EMU UO BOOKSTORE STAMP COUNTER EMU MAIN DESK DEADLINES: Ads must be ptacee by 1 pm one Pay poor to publication Ads mat are to appear m Monday s paper must be m by 1 pm Friday PAYMENT AH ads must be paid tor in advance unless a billing agreemem has been estab kshed with us RATES: Rates are 15 cento per word tor the ftrst day and 12 cents per word tor coneecu ttve (toys me ad is rur without change. $1.50 minimum lor the first Insertion *1 JO minimum lor coneecuttve Insertions There Is NO refund lor ad cancellations The 00E cannot be responsible tor more than one day's incorrect advertising insertion The ODE s liability tor typographical errors moor rect insertions or omissions in advertising published shall be limited solely to the cancellation ot charges tor such portion ot space occupied oy the error It you ad appears incorrectly call 6*6-4343 before 1 pm ’or correction in the next day s issue The ODE will not knowingly accept adverti ng which n any manner denigrates or unjustly excludes members ot any age se» race, color national religious or sexual orientation HALLOWEEN KITCHE PUNK AND FUNK Dress up or down with clothes from THE COMPANY STORE 245 POLK Quality recycled goods 274 10-22 LAFLER SILKSCREEN T-shirts, sweatshirts, windbreakers. etc 343-23*6 or 342-1*27 ?02 11-6 FOR SALE COMIC BOOKS Largest selection in Oregon 2.000 plus at 25 cents each Receive new comics two weeks ahead of Eugene OLD and RARE comics tor sale FANTASY SHOP 770 East 13th 345-25*6 904 18-30 IBM ELECTRIC Model C Very good condi tion $?00 Call M-F, 8 am-5 pm 485-4971 __10-29 THE KINCAID Are you a student without a bed"1 We still have a few single beds left from our yard sale Also we have a couple chests All items priced under $50 Cali 484-0251. or come by 914 E 18th. * 7 220 10-2?
