High school group
joins protesters
at downtown rally
About 100 South Eugene High
School students skipped their
afternoon classes Thursday to join
protesters at the Lane County Jail,
where they and others held a rally
during the arraignment of 90
demonstrators against apartheid.
”There’s a pretty stiff penalty
for skipping classes at our
school,” said Jessica, 16, who
didn’t offer her last name. ”Our
assistant principal drove by (the
march) to see who was there. ”
Some protesters arrested
Wednesday night at the Federal
Building were South Eugene High
students, and the event activated
members of the school’s Peace
Club to organize further
demonstration.
”1 never realized so many peo
ple at my school cared,” said
Heidi, 16.

How to release stress ' ‘rope ’
By Michelle Brence
Of the Emerald
Stress is like tying a rope around your ankle
and allowing other people to pull on it, Robert
Sanford said during a Thursday-night address
titled "Burnout and Stress Prevention: Develop
ing Personal Power.”
Sanford, a University of Washington police
officer, spoke to a receptive audience in the EMU
Dad’s Room about the techniques he uses to battle
burnout.
First, he told the audience, take a 3-inch by
5-inch note card and write down the worst thing
you’ve ever done. Then, make the event 10 times
worse and write it down on the card’s reverse
side. After this, Sanford instructed the audience
to tear the card up and flush it down the toilet.
"Being obsessed with the wasted past wastes
the present,” Sanford said.
A second thing to do is to make a list of all
your roles in life and give a letter grade for each
role. This, he said, will help prevent defining
yourself by just one role.
"And you realize that even though one of
°Q
them is a ‘D-,’ your GPA is pretty damn good,” he
said.
Don't regret decisions, Sanford said. Instead,
focus on the skills you have to solve a problem
rather than on the problem itself. ‘‘Keep looking
at your tool kit rather than the job you have to
do,” he said.
Another technique includes asking yourself
if you would rather be someone else, he said. If
you find that you would, you might need to seek
counseling, he said.
Sanford also presented ways to avoid being
plagued by burnout once you have defeated it.
When people insult you, fight back by think
ing, “That does not define me. I define me. You
can’t unless I let you,” Sanford said. By letting
others do the defining, you are handing them the
end of the rope tied to your ankle, he said.
Other techniques include focusing on suc
cesses rather than on failures each night before
going to sleep and displaying pictures of yourself
in proud moments on a wall.
Sanford also suggested recording dates that
are important in your life in a calender book.
