subverting our ability to directly protest
"We were able to do that last year, we .ire
unable to do that this year because we don't
know where they are." she said
AStJO University Affairs Coordinator Brian
Hoop spoke about some of the steps students plan
to take to prevent the CIA from returning to c am
pus.
"The CIA has a heinous record of c ommit
ting crimes against humanity in supposed mock
defense of protecting the values of demix racy."
Hoop said "The CM A is. to the core, involved in
activities in complete violation of U S and inter
national law.
"We believe that there should be a prohibi
tion on employers who recruit at the U of C) who
require their employees to engage in unlawful ac
tivities as proven by U.S. and international law,"
he said.
Plans are under way to petition the Student
Senate and the University Senate to further
amend the recruitment clause of affirmative ac
tion to include a ban on recruiters who require
employees to engage in illegal activities. Hoop
said.
Moreover. other restrir lions are tH'inv! consid
ered Hoop said "Further evaluation ol the pro
i ess In which the KMC allows people to come
onto campus and possibly determine whether or
not we have to ask the KMC Board and the l m
versilv Senate to demand that the KMC include
statements of affirmative action for corporations
that come onto campus and use KMI' t.ii ilities
Currently, corporate or organization spokes
persons can use the KMC facilities without going
through Career Planning and Placement, but In
receiving sponsorship from a University depart
ment. or a student group or organization
I loop said some people believe the alleged
discrimination of gays and lesbians by the CIA
has come into focus at protests l>ei ause all other
avenues were exhausted
"Hut what I believe is that students demand
ed the CIA as well as any other corppiaUujfcvifflh
commercial interests wishing tnu>Cp of () fat ili
tieSj be held accountaTiU) ffiPThe same standards
ol affirmative action as the University intends to
live up to," Hoop said
"We believe th.it allowing the CIA on cam
pus is more than an issue ol free speech, but an
issue of insisting that our University will not tol
erate any forms of ra< ism. sexism or
homophobia." Hoop said
FUNDING
Continued from Page 1
during that two year period as
dollars in the general fund are
shifted to elementary educa
tion. University President
Myles Brand has pegged the
University's share of that loss
at $:<() million.
"We are probably looking at
a 10 percent cut (over the next
two years) in what higher edu
cation has." Bassett said
lust how deep those cuts
might be and how long the ago
ny may he drawn out depends
on two crucial rpiestions. Bas
sett said:
• flow long will it take for
tlie Legislature to draw up a
plan for other sources of fund
tag?
• And what happens it vot
ers eventually refuse whatever
solution the Legislature offers
them?
At this point, sales tax pro
posals are the most commonly
mentioned solution among leg
islators But whether and when
a Republican-controlled House
will agree to a sales lax arts the
questions of the hour.
“The message we have re
ceived from the voters is ‘con
trol spending,' not 'go raise
taxes.' ” said Rep. (ireg Wal
den, R-Hood River. "Our goal
is to look at every budget, every
program and choose those lh.it
are efficient and cost-effective,
and to throw out those that are
either useless, worn out or too
expensive.
“That's going to be a long
process," he said.
Republican Rep Randy Mill
er from Lake Oswego echos
Walden's sentiments “The
Democratic Senate and the gov
ernor will clearly have to lie
willing to pare down growth in
government programs." he
said "In the past we have tried
to make cuts, but we've lieen
out voted Hut that won't hap
pen now."
However, many Democrats
believe some new form of taxa
tion must be found as soon as
possible, and that it the Repub
lican majority does not agree a
serious battle lies on Oregon's
legislative horizon
"It could lie similar to Wash
inglon, I).(! . last mouth." said
present Democratic House \ta
jority header (lari llostuka
"Then there was a lot of bi
partisan maneuvering that was
very hitter, and it resulted in a
half-baked compromise
Hut the quest ion of whether
to cut spending or propose a
new tax is onl\ one issue of
dispute. The se< ond question is
a matter of timing It a new lax
is proposed, when should It go
to the voters?
f ollow mg the belief that the
sooner voters are offered a new
tax proposal, the more risk
there is of it being rejei ted. Re
publican Miller believes a tax
increase shouldn't be offered
until loo.!
llosticka said the possibility
of voter rejection is a Demoi rat
u concern, "Hut 1 wouldn't say
that it is a consensus
Regardless of when a new
souri e of dollars is found
higher education is likely to
take cuts for .1 vear or two. Has
