Library receives $10,000 grant
of Canadian books, newspapers
Canadian consul Alan Rowe
presented a $10,000 donation of
books and newspapers to the
University Library at a
ceremony Monday.
Rowe, consul for political and
economic relations in Seattle,
presented the gift on behalf of
the Canadian government. The
grant is the second by the Cana
dian government; the previous
gift was a series of Canadian
films.
The books and newspapers
are intended to strengthen the
library’s holdings and to sup
port the Canadian studies pro
gram, said Larry Jones,
associate professor of planning,
public policy and management.
The gift is part of a grant
award initiated by Jones and
John Shepherd, a speech pro
fessor, through the Universtiy
Library. Through the grant the
library receives materials and
books in exchange for the pro
motion of a Canadian studies
program.
Jones said the grant allows
the University to expand its cur
riculum through the accessibili
ty of more information. He said
the grant allows for both faculty
research and the expansion of
an existing Canadian studies
curriculum.

The University currently of
fers several courses in Canadian
studies. Jones and Shepherd
would like to increase the cur
rent courses available, especial
ly in the fields of U.S.-Canadian
issues and Canadian economy,
industry, and politics.
Jones said he would like to
see the program become inter
disciplinary by having Cana
dian studies courses available
through different departments,
such as English and economics.
The gift of materials includes
books on Canadian government;
energy and environmental
issues; economics; history, in
cluding native Canadian
history; Canadian cities; and
more. It also includes
microfiche copies of the Van
couver Sun newspaper that
were missing from the Universi
ty collection.
Uncertainties
Continued from Page 1
Feher talked out his problems
with his fraternity brothers and
they assumed everything was
all right, Stewart said. But the
house president believes
Feher’s troubles began piling
up again.
Apparently, these troubles
weren’t so evident when Feher
was a student at Mariner High
School in Everett, Wash.
Elaine Bilbao, assistant prin
cipal of the school, remembers
Feher as a good student who
stayed out of trouble. Feher
graduated from Mariner in 1983
and enrolled at the University
last fall as a freshman majoring
in psychology.
"This whole situation is so
shocking that it is hard to relate
this incident to Michael,”
Bilbao said in a telephone inter
view Monday night. “He was a
good student. He was a nice kid
who did what he was supposed
to do.”
Feher had no criminal record
in Eugene or in Everett.
As a high school student,
Feher’s major interest was play
ing the guitar, and he continued
his interest in music at the
University, Stewart said.
“If 1 was to name any goal of
his, it would be to become a
rock ’n’ roll star of some kind,”
he said.
Attaining his musical goal
and other goals in his life had
been a problem for Feher.
Linder a facade of pleasantness
Jim Stewart
and amiability, Feher was
troubled and overly concerned
about his future, Stewart said.
About two weeks ago, Feher
stopped going to his classes. He
did not withdraw because he
never had officially registered
and had not paid his fees, said
University Vice Provost Dick
Hill.
Feher had intended to stay at
the house and re-enroll winter
term, but his anxiety about the
future got the better of him,
Stewart said.
Feher’s uncertainty about his
future often showed in his pen
chant for becoming involved in
fads then losing interest in
them, Stewart said. One such
fad was his interest in
militarism.
Feher had belonged to ROTC
but quit after only two months.
Occasionally he read copies of
Soldier of Fortune, a mercenary
magazine. But Stewart said he
never saw anything real
unusual about Feher’s interest
in the military.
Several weeks ago, Feher
bought a rifle, saying he wanted
to use it for hunting. Stewart
did not approve of guns in the
house but agreed to allow it if
Feher removed the firing pin
and kept it locked in the frater
nity’s treasury. Feher checked
out the firing pin sometime over
the weekend.
“We don’t think he went out
there to kill anyone but
himself,” Stewart said. “He got
into the military kick again,
wanted to go over to the
stadium, play with his guns and
kill himself.”
