Newspapers to get new stands
By Julie Shippen
Of the Emerald
Fifteen new stands for alter
native student newspapers will
be placed at visible points in
the campus area Monday. The
stands are being provided by
the ASUO to house various
student-program papers, in
cluding ASUO’s Off the Record.
Among the other publications
to share the stands are The Ad
vocate, the Survival Center’s
paper, and the Impact, a
newsletter published by the
Oregon Student Public Interest
Research Group.
The need for the new drop
boxes reached a peak two weeks
ago when more than 3,500
copies of alternative publica
tions were discarded by the
Emerald after they were found
in the paper’s own stands
around the University.
The situation was the focus of
a letter to the editor that was
printed Tuesday in the
Emerald. The letter, written by
the Impact editor Brian Elliott,
recognized the problem of hav
ing no racks for the various
papers, but criticized the
Emerald for throwing the
papers out.
Many members of these
publications have agreed their
papers should have been simply
placed on the floor beside the
Emerald’s drop boxes.
”1 guess the thing that makes
me mad is that the distributors
(of the Emerald) just threw them
out,” says Louise Tippens, a
member of OSPIRG and a con
tributor to the Impact newslet
ter. “This is a real waste of
hours and hours of student
time,” she says. “It’s a real
waste of student fees.”
Tippens says she doesn’t
know how the Impact issues got
in the Emerald’s racks, and
thinks a janitor must have put
the papers there while sweep
ing. “I was certain that we had
not put them there,” she says.
“I’ll give the publications'
editors the benefit of the doubt,
but we need to find out who is
putting the papers in our
boxes.” says Michele Matassa,
editor of the Emerald. Matassa
says that placing other papers in
the Emerald’s boxes is illegal
because the boxes are private
property.
“I learned my lesson last year
after the first issues of The Ad
vocate and Off the Record got
almost totally recycled,” says
Tim Jordan, co-editor of Off the
Record and ASUO publications
coordinator. “It happened ail
last year. As far as I knew, the
ODE didn't have any written
policy concerning that.”
But Susan Thelen, circula
tions and advertising manager
at the Emerald, says the
Emerald’s boxes are the com
pany's private property and that
she was carrying out her obliga
tion to Emerald advertisers and
readers in removing the other
papers.
“This happens habitually.
It’s the groups’ responsibility to
keep their papers out of the
Emerald’s boxes,” Thelen says.
"The policy of the law is that
you can’t use someone else's
private property for your own
gain.”
Although she ordered the
papers' removal, Thelen says it
was not her intention to sup
press their readership. "They’re
great newspapers. I want them
out on the campus,” she says.
“I’m not trying to squelch their
publication at all.”
Meanwhile, Wednesday mor
ning, between 3,000-5,000
Emerald issues were stolen from
various locations. The Emerald
is offering a reward to anyone
with information leading to the
arrest and prosecution of per
sons involved in the theft.
Center provides media services
By Catherine Lilja
Of the Emerald
Need a some special help on a term project?
A good bet might be to use visual aids, such as
slides and videos from the University's Instruc
tional Media Center.
The IMC, located in the lower southwest cor
ner of the University Library, will loan cassette
players, slide projectors and other equipment to
students who have staff approval, said George
Bynon, IMC director for the past six years.
While the IMC’s first priority is to supply
University faculty with equipment, Bynon en
courages students to use the IMC resources as
well.
At the IMC’s main desk, students who have
faculty approval may select from a catalog listing
of the IMC’s 1,500 films.
Also, the IMC has unlimited access to more
than 12,000 state-owned films administered
through the Division of Continuing Education at
Portland State University. The IMC has exchange
programs with other film libraries in the area,
though some films require a users fee, which is
charged to the University department the student
project is conducted through.
The smallest of the IMC’s five film studios
holds up to 10 people, while the three largest
ones hold up to 60. Though the studios are used
mostly for classes, they can also be reserved by
study groups who have faculty approval. Bynon
said teachers and students should plan ahead for
studio use because reservations fill up quickly.
The IMC is opened Monday through Thurs
