turn! center fur students of col
or and the rest of the University
conuminitv to come together to
work on progs ts and learn about
different cultures
We are also working towards
diversification across the cur
riculum that will include contri
butions of all people." 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

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.
