end of the survey, OSL left room
for comments, and many of the
90 responses received were sur
prising, she said.
‘ ‘They wanted to vent a lot of
anger and frustration about the
situation that they’ve been put
in,” she said. One question
naire’s commentary, signed by
two students, ended with the
question, ‘‘How can we help
freeze tuition?”
Another part of the survey ad
dressed charges for extra
classroom materials, Oeser said,
and it was here she saw two
specific problems appear often.
"It was fairly common that
students were being required to
purchase handouts and pay for
class films," she said. "I was
shocked when I first saw that,
and I’m a bit alarmed. Students
are already being asked to pay

tuition.”
Oeser said OSL will ask the
institutions to investigate the
situation as well as course
scheduling problems, which
also showed up on the survey.
“In every discipline, courses
were cut. Many students were
having trouble getting courses
they needed to graduate,” she
said. A lack of courses forced
one student to completely
change majors and add another
year of studies before
graduating, she said.
Problems such as these began
appearing after large budget
cuts in higher education were
made during the 1979-80 and
1981-82 fiscal years, Oeser said.
During these same periods tui
tion was increased by 60 per
cent, she added. “That is one of
the reasons why Oregon now
has one of the highest tuitions
in the western United States.”
Oeser said the Reagan ad
ministration is partly responsi
ble for the cutbacks in financial
aid, having cut aid by 20 per
cent in the last three years
alone. Because of the cuts,
students have been forced to
find other ways of paying for
tuition, she said.
“I know from the figures from
the State Scholarship Commis
sion that Guaranteed Student
Loans have increased three
times in the past few years,”
Oeser said. “It was a fairly
small program several years
ago, and now it’s the largest
nmnrnm nf all M
Despite the generally dismal
picture, some students taking
the survey said that they
weren’t aware of any effects
from budget cuts and that they
were generally happy with their
education, Oeser said.
"That didn’t really surprise
me," she said. "A lot of the
time when budget cuts happen,
it’s hard to pinpoint where
they’ve actually occurred. If it’s
incremental, it's even harder to
detect.”
The OSL report will be
presented to the Legislature
during next year’s hearings on
the state system budget, Oeser
said.
"I think it will have an effect
on legislators because they
don't always hear from
students,” she said. "Students
don’t have an ax to grind. What
students do want is to learn,
and they want the resources
necessary to learn. I think in the
next Legislature students are
going to be taken much more
seriously than ever before.”
The final survey report
should be available Friday,
Oeser said. Students who want
a copy can get one free by call
ing or writing to the OSL in
Salem, 588-1571 or 573 Union
