The University has offered a minor in environmental studies since UiflB The program will be drawn primarily from existing cur ricula However, three new lower-division courses will be added to provide an overview of each of the three program areas. Courses in research and practice will lie added to the upper-divsion currii ula. the agenda said. The environmental studies ma|ur will operate on a bud get of S5B.000 for the first year. It will also draw on a 550,000 donation and a $100,000 endowment given by retired University professor Arnold Soderwail In other board news, mem liers conducted a work session to disc tiss career planning by students and career placement semee*. It is the first of three issues the hoard will tackle each term as part of the Stu dent Life Issues Forum Throe ideas uune out of this term’s forum, said Bobby Lee. University graduate student and one of two student hoard members. These include implementing mandatory career planning sessions for undergraduates early on. assessing individual skills needed for each major and incorporating career planning in classrooms. "If you look at the amount of lime and resources the Uni versity spends recruiting stu dents here, and then look at the amount of resources spent on helping students to find career placement after they graduate, the numbers are very disproportionate." Lee said. Lee's plan for the Student Life Issues Forum is to bring various issues to the board and to ultimately increase the quality of life for students, he said. The forums are at the brain storming point currently and will probably be used to implement programs in the future Nothing will be dis id ed until after the forums are completed. At the board's June or July meeting, members will dis cuss student financial aid. The third forum will cover student diversity broadly defined to include racial-ethnicity, ago and gender dimensions - in Oc toiler or November. vontion and intervention.

Walker said Walker said he was happv about the board s positive recep tion of the proposal and expect ed the board to pass it. "We re really appreciative of the professionalism of the board and the way it dealt with the issue," he said. "The board was very interested in the Institute." Board members expressed con cern that the institute should lie located in Portland because of the increased crime rate. However. Walker convinced them that vio lence occurs in all settings and seems to l*> independent of pop ulation. economic, ethnic and urban fatdors. LOWEST PRICE ON CAMPUS! UVI ON FILM MVfLOMNC!
