By Paul Ertelt
Of the Emerald
Two Eugene women, who
were arrested Friday at the of
fice of the honorary consul of
South Africa in Portland,
believe they have made an effec
tive statement against that
country’s apartheid policies.
Debra Cook and Marion
Malcolm were arrested for
trespassing when they refused
to leave the office of Honorary
Consul Calvin Van Pelt. The
women are members of the Lane
County staff and the national
executive committee of Clergy
and Laity Concerned.
“We went into the office, and
we said we wanted to see him,
and we wanted him to resign,”
Malcolm said in an interview
Sunday.
The women were told Van
Pelt was out, and when they
refused to leave, they were ar
rested and released soon after.
Van Pelt resigned Friday say

tions at his office had made it
impossible for him to do his job.
Demonstrators have picketed
the office twice a week since
mid-December, as part of a na
tionwide protest movement at
the South African Embassy in
Washington, D.C., and its con
sulates across the country.
Several prominent labor,
political and religious leaders
have been arrested in the na
tionwide protests. Dick Celsi,
chair of the Oregon Democratic
Party, and state Rep. Margaret
blacks in South Africa and ac
cuses his administration of sup
porting apartheid policies.
“You’re looking at a situation
in which many people are not
considered to be citizens in
their own country,” she said.
“There has been a relaxation of
what is called petty apartheid,
(such as discrimination in
restaurants), but that has
nothing to do with who is in
power and who controls
whom."
Though they are classified as
‘If we had done this on our own as a whim,
it would not have been effective. As part of

— Marion Malcolm
Carter are among the Orego
nians who have been arrested in
the protests.
‘‘If we had done this on our
own as a whim, it would not
have been effective. As part of a
nationwide movement, I think
it is,” Malcolm said.
‘‘South Africa doesn’t like to
have its consulates closed
because South Africa, for
economic and political reasons,
seems to be engaged in a cam
paign to improve its interna
tional image. When its consuls
are forced to resign under
pressure, it’s a real step
backwards for them,” she said.
Malcolm rejects the claim by
President Ronald Reagan that
the situation is improving for
non-military, the United States
supplies South Africa with
goods such as trucks and com
munications equipment which
are used by the white minority
to control a black majority,
Malcolm said.
“Reagan’s policy of construc
tive engagement really amounts
to concrete assistance to the
apartheid government,” she
said.
Besides the protests, anti
apartheid groups are boycotting
South African products, as well
as performers and athletes who
have gone to that country.
South African products include
wine, clothing, and the film
“The Gods Must Be Crazy,”
Malcolm said.
Honorary degree
motion sanctioned
By Michael Hosmar
Of the Emerald
CORVALLIS — Individual colleges and universities in
Oregon can once again award honorary' degrees.
The State Board of Higher Education adopted a motion
Friday that will allow each school to adopt its own criteria
and procedures for selecting honorary degree candidates.
The award will honor distinguished achievement or outstan
ding contribution to the institution, state or society.
Each institution must forward its criteria and procedures
to State System Chancellor Bud Davis for approval. The board
must approve each recommendation 90 days before the
honorary degree is awarded.
The University voted in 1947 to discontinue the practice
of awarding honorary degrees. Instead, it extended recogni
tion through distinguished service awards.
University President Paul Olum said the practice of
awarding honorary degrees can work well as long as people
don’t abuse it.
The board also adopted a report compiled by Larry
Pierce, executive assistant to the chancellor, that defines the
board’s planning goals for the future. The board's new goals
are not very different from those adopted in 1982, Pierce said.
‘‘They can be described as ‘staying the course,' ” he said.
The following is a list of the board’s main planning
goals:
•Improve the accessibility of a college education by
freezing tuition and reversing the declining enrollment
trend.
•Improve the quality of the student body at each institu
tion by attracting Oregon’s best students with quality cur
riculum, and retain quality faculty by increasing salaries.
•Improve and create programs that will help Oregon’s
economic recovery.
•Explain the importance of higher education to Orego
nians by developing sharper ideas of purpose.
In other business, Davis announced the retirement of
Clarethel Kahananui, acting vice chancellor for academic af
fairs. Kahananui will retire at the end of the 1984-85
academic year after serving with the state system for more
than 30 years.
In June 1981, Oregon Magazine listed Kahananui as one
of “Oregon’s 100 most powerful women.”
She graduated with a B.A. in journalism from the
University in 1943 and in 1953 earned her master’s degree in
general studies from the Unviersity.
