Bowen said Me said the quality of educa tion at the University could be improved bv including a broad er persper live and recognizing the contributions that various eth nic groups have made through out US history. "I think we are making some real progress in that area hut it is something we need to constant l\ work on to change as the American society changes." Howen said Turning to a different issue, Bowen told the group that both the Alumni and students have worked well together ill the area of political ai tivisin "To get their (Alumni) expe rience. knowledge and support is vurv helpful for what students fai tills and administrators ant try ing to do in lobbying the legis lators in order to make sure that higher education gets enough money to stay in business." he said. Bowen told the Alumni that students have been actively involved in voter registration campaigns and pointed to the the registration of .'t.000 new voters us one of the u< < omplishments made this year He also said that the ASUO is involved m bringing various political figures to campus We are currently in the process of bringing Representa tive DeFazio on campus for a Town Hall." Bowen said Bowen also told the group that students are working on two things to float with the Uni* v o r s i t y ' s "financial crisis." Tht> first is a com in it toe called ARC (Administra tive Review Committee) where vari ous student BbwfR focus groups and committees are working to change the wav the University is administered Bowen believes the second pr<>< ess. dubbed "productivity'' is the most important because it deals with finding a wav to edu i ale more students with less funds and at the same time not sacrificing quality of education I hope there is a i oncern out there to make sure the integrity of the institution remains in tact throughout this process." Bowen said After speaking, members of the ussim lation asked questions as to the how effort the ASUO was making to enhance student par ticipation us Alumni after they graduate. Kim Heiney. Director of Con stituency Relations, said that Bowen's siieech was a great idea Itecause it helps the Alumni stay in touch with the students. She said that they work with students but often don't have u chance to fiear from them THDRSDAT NIGHT SOCIAL 1 C” I lien. <M’$QO0 X \J with 2 sodas One coupon (*'i puieliase Ftat dcUvoiv only Campus aioa only Expues J/18/94 687-8600 Tut tut looks like rain NOKMAN MCSS**'N»” 'M F"W»k Sara Martyn and Tristan Cooley walk through a sea ot umbrellas on 13th Avenue Wednesday as winter rains pour HUNTING Continued from Page 1 or ( ougar while the hunter waits in the car and monitors the col lar signals. When the cougar or bear is treed and the hounds look up. the collar gives off a signal alerting the hunters to track the hounds and kill the tre<*d animal. Survival Center co-coordinator |ason Trainor believes tiear bait ing and hound hunting are uneth ical Hunting, he said, should be under the premise of fair chase, whit h both methods violate "These animals have no i ham e bei a use they're going up against let hnologv. Trainor said "If you’re going to hunt, at least make it fair " The ballot measure would out law these hunting methods with onl\ a few exceptions They would include use by state offi i mis to control bear and cougar populations or cases where the animals have been a threat to livestock or have damaged prop erty Advocates of the initiative said that baiting and hound hunting are neither fair nor ethical "It's not fair to the animals; they don't have a fair chance.” said Oregon Bear and Cougar Coalition spokeswoman Julie Williamson Baiting boar is already illegal in many other states, including California, where it has been ille gal for more than 20 years. Such hunting has most recently been banned in Colorado, where a sim ilar initiative passed in 1002 with a 70 percent majority. Concerns about overpopulation among bears or cougars is unfounded, the Oregon Bear and Cougar Coalition said. The measure would allow any baiting or hound hunting that is necessary to contain the popula tions. The states in which the ani mals are found have not experi enced any problems due to increased populations. Animals aren't tho only ones that suffer liecause of those hunt ing pra( tices. Trninor said. "It's unfair to the people who appreciate the animals and wilderness." he said. Besides (irculating the peti tion. the Survival Center is also sponsoring u series of informa tional films and will gather sig natures and answer questions in the KMU this week. The deadline for the signatures is June Hi Although the Survival Center began work on the peti tion only Inst week, it already has "a whole bunch” of signatures. Trainor said.
