Higher Education Day draws legislators, alumni, officials By Chris Norred Of the Emerald Monday was "Higher Educa tion Day” at the Oregon Legislative Assembly in Salem. Alumni, legislators, higher education officials and Gov. Neil Goldschmidt met througout the day to discuss the role higher education should play in the "Oregon Com eback" plan. The State System of Higher Education with its eight public 4-year colleges and universities is the topic of much discussion in the Legislature this session. State System officials are cur rently lobbying the Joint Ways and Means Education Subcom mittee for approval of the State System's $121 million biennial budget improvement request. The governor has already trimmed that budget request to about $25 million in improvements. Several other bills that would affect Oregon college students have been introduced in the legislature, including three re quested by the Oregon Student Lobby. •Senate Bill 400 would create a Student Activities Fund, by which the interest earned on in cidental fees, optional student fees, and student health service fees could be returned to stu dent programs rather than to the state General Fund. •House Bill 2412 will ap propriate $10 million from the state General Fund to the Oregon State Scholarship Com mission for use in need grant financial aid programs. •House Bill 2472 would allow a student alleging discrimination based on race, religion, national origin, sex, marital status, age, or handicap to file a suit in state court. Senate Joint Memorial 4, in troduced in the Legislature at the request of OSL, urges the United States Congress to op pose the Reagan Administra tion’s education budget reductions. •Senate Bill ,341 was in troduced at the request of Goldschmidt and would begin a merit-based financial aid pro gram aimed at stopping the so called Oregon brain-drain trend of top Oregon scholars atten ding college out of state.

"When we started testing out of the lab in 1981, we violated the ABM Treaty. It was originally sup posed to be confined to the lab by the agreement.” Bowman said research of lasers as weapons began around 1970. During his 22-year career in the Air Force, Bowman was responsible for all high energy laser developments for space and advanced surveillance spacecraft development. On the KEZI Mid-Day Report Monday. Bowman said SD1 has nothing to do with a defensive weapon. He said the United States’ policy on arms control has been completely turned up side down by the Reagan ad ministration since 1980 and 1981. On the Report, Bowman stated the United States has abandoned war prevention for war fighting, saying the destruction of an evil empire has become a higher priority than preserving the United States, and that the American Arrest Continued from Page 1 appeared to continue prepara tion for her ritual and was plac ing stakes at various locations in the courtyard when four cam pus security officers arrived after being called by EMU building managers. She would not tell officers her name or if she was a student, ac cording to witnesses. She elud ed officers for several minutes, shouting, “I just love playing games,” and running around the courtyard. She hit security officer Otis Scarborough as he tried to de tain her, and was eventually carried to a squad car by foui officers.
