Clarno visits campus, speaks on higher ed ■ ELECTION: The candidate for state treasurer discussed her experience and past budgeting success on Friday By Angie Suchy Student Activities Reporter Bev Clamo said she views high er education as “a top priority.” And if elected Oregon State Treasurer, she said she plans to continue to secure more state funding and unite the biparti san state government to push for consensus on key is sues. In a dis cussion largely highlighting the status of education, Oregon’s Speaker of the House and eight year Republican lawmaker dis cussed her continuing role in pol itics during a visit to the University on Friday. Though Clarno, R-Deschutes County, is opposing Democratic incumbent Treasurer Jim Hill in the elections this November, she talked little of him. Instead, she spoke about how the role of state treasurer can be improved in gen eral. “I don’t think voters realize that Frankfurt Costa Rica Guatemala Hong Kong Bangkok Tokyo New York Sydney ;399 1269 ;259 ;3i5 ;350 ;275 167 1598 Fares are each way from Portland based on a roundtrjp purchase.

She said she reduced her staff from three to five and cut $30 million by discouraging expenses such as costly out-of-state travel. Clarno said she is also tapping into cam paign dollars carried over from her past House races to finance her campaign. Clamo said she sees her experi ence in budget reduction and her ability to establish a sound rap port between parties in the House as key in her qualification for state treasurer. Republican leaders kept their promise of reducing bureaucratic rules and cutting waste last year, with $100 million more in state funding for education than the proposed budget, she said. “Education is still recovering from hard-hitting Ballot Measure Five,” Clarno said. “I feel that the allocation of funds needs to be re viewed in order to aid education.” One example she cites is the “weak” Oregon Baccalaureate Bonds Program, designed to help parents save for their children’s education. “I want to make it easier and more profitable for parents to plan for their children’s education,” she said.
