students can discuss their pro
blems or ask any questions they
may have regarding an upcom
ing test.
"If you need help with a
paper, you’re shy in discussion
or you're scared about the final,
they’ll (instructors) talk to
you," Allison said. "They'll
give you concrete, personal,
detailed help."
Additional aid also is provid
ed by upperclassmen who have
managed to survive the rigorous
demands of the Honors College.
In addition, student groups like
the Honors College Student Ad
visory Board and the Honors
Peer Advising group offer peer
support and provide social ac
tivities for students.
Past activities include student
trips and get togethers. informal
evening seminars and evening
study hours. Although the
structure of the Honors College
allows the students to work as
hard as they want and gives
them all the individual atten
tion they need, students
sometimes need to escape from
the constant demands of the
Honors College.
According to Allison, the ac
tivities offered by the Honors
College Student Advisory Board
not only provide students with
a relaxing outlet but also en
courage them to take advantage
of all the outside opportunities
available to University
students.
The Honors College "offers
all the advantages of a small
school within the context of a
larger University," Allison
said. "We have small classes
and a close-knit student en
vironment but at the same time
we have all the student
resources and services of a big
school,” he added.
This mix enables students to
establish close friendships with
other students within the
Honors College while providing
them with the opportunity to
pursue outside interests.
“Education is much more than
your major,” Allison said. "It's
also the development of a much
broader perspective."
This philosophy is also found
in the Honors College brochure,
which states, "the aim of the
Honors College is to reach
beyond professional or
specialized training in the
University years and to inspire

an initiative's lawfulness only

However. Sercombe said it is
common practice at both the
state and local level to withhold
an initiative if it is thought to be
illegal A similar case occured
in Eugene in 1983 with a
referendum, he said.
"The initiative process gives
people the right to vote on
legislation," Sercombe said "It
doesn't mean they have a right
to vote on every decision made
by the government."
City officials said it is unlike

the issue until they had seen the

quiry and personal growth.”
To help meet this goal.
Honors College students an* re
quired to take specially design
ed classses in the humanities,
social sciences and natural
sciences. In adddition. they are
also required to take a year of
math, at least two years of a
foreign language and two ad
vanced Honors College
seminars outside their major
field.
Hut despite these r e -
quirements, the appeal of the
Honors College still remains.
