By Demtan Mclean
Errwsld Reporter
University President Myles
Brand offered Thursday to bury
the hatchet with Oregon busi
nesses in the battle over higher
education funding
Since voters passed Measure
5 in i9U0, Oregon business
groups have fought and defeat
ed two proposals to make up
for lost education dollars at the
University. Brand said
"The business community
didn't like the solutions pro
posed before," Brand said, re
ferring to the governor's sales
tax proposal and the recently
defeated Measure 7.
"Now, its the responsibility
of the business community to
move forward with their own
proposals,” he said at a campus
press conference.
“If 1 like them. I'll support
them," Brand said
Brand said business and
higher education should work
as partners for the same goal:
economic growth
"Thu University of Oregon
succeeds to the extent that the
state and local economy sue
coeds." Brand said
After the conference. Brand
met with the Eugene Chamber
of Commerce to discuss strate
gies for stimulating the econo
my
The key to success. Brand
said, is working toward a
change from a limber-based
economy to one based on ser
vice and high technology
"Our proximity to the Pacific
Kim offers tremendous trade
opportunities," Brand said
"We must turn out a well-edu
cated work force, people who
will work at economic develop
ment." he said
"People with college educa
tions make jobs, not take
them," he said
As Lane County's largest em
ployer. Brand said the Univer
sity must take the lead in local
economic growth Research, he
said, can generate the dollars
the University needs
"Through grants and con
tracts, we brought in $-414 mil
lion last year," Brand said
"This is one way the U of O
helps bring tax dollars home "
As for short term financing of
the University, Brand said
Myles Brand
Measure 5 still threatens the
quality of education
The next budget cut will re
quire 405 )ot> cut* at the Uni
versity These cuts will come
out of student and faculty ser
vices, Brand said, and not aca
demic programs
"We're already as narrow as
we can get and still stay a major
university," Iirand said
