UO students try to stop logging
The Associated Press
DETROIT — Four University
students were among anti-logging
protesters who tried to block traf
fic Monday morning on Highway
22 east of Salem with an elaborate
rope rigging with people in it, but
a truck drove through and
knocked it all down.
Protesters said no one was
hurt.
Members of Cascadia Forest
Defenders have been trying to
stop logging in the Santiam water
shed in the Willamette National
Forest, saying it will send harmful
sediments into the river and harm
the city of Salem’s water.
“What we want to do is draw
attention to what is being done,”
said spokeswoman Lisa Wis
newski. “There aren’t so many of
us that people can be out there 24
hours a day. We need to draw at
tention to the sale so people who
have power can exercise it and do
good for the city of Salem.”
Wisnewski said protesters set
up their roadblock at about 5:30
a.m. 22 miles south of Detroit at
the turnoff for a road leading to
the logging site. The University
students were on platforms 40
feet above the road and four more
were locked to the rigging on the
ground.
Before the roadblock had been
up for an hour, a truck drove
through, knocking it down, she
said. There was no immediate
word from the Forest Service or
Marion County sheriffs deputies.
Goals: Higher Ed. budget presents challenges

Kitzhaber said.
Kitzhaber stressed the distinction between tradi
tional education and the new proficiency-based edu
cation.
“Instead of employment applications asking how
many years of schooling you have, they will ask
‘What can you do with that education?’” he said.
A danger that colleges and universities must
avoid, he said, is becoming too rigid in their pursuit
of standards.
“We are not preparing students just to enter the
work force, but to be parents and citizens in a democ
racy,” Kitzhaber said. “What the students take out
the door must enable them to function in the work
ing world. It can’t be just a job training center. That’s
not what education is about.”
After his speech, Kitzhaber fielded questions from
the 250 audience members, most of whom were Ore
gon higher education administrators and teachers.
One person asked if the governor felt the legisla
ture supported higher education.
“I don’t think any legislator would say they are
against it, but they seem more concerned with bal
ancing the budget. The budget docket should reflect
our value of education, though,” Kitzhaber said.
The theme of financing higher education ran
through several more questions.
“We haven’t given teachers the resources to teach
this new system. It’s that simple,” Kitzhaber said.
“Teachers need the resources for professional devel
opment. We haven’t done that. We may have to pre
pare for a failure in the next two years because of
this.”
Kitzhaber was the keynote speaker at a two-day
conference sponsored by the Oregon State System of
Higher Education, the Office of Community College
Services and the Oregon Department of Education.
The conference planners hope to examine how
higher education will cope with these new students.
Kati Haycock, director of the Education Trust in
Washington D.C., and David Conley, director of the
Proficiency-based Admission Standards (PASS) Pro
ject, are scheduled to speak today.
Position: Gleason will not teach during school year

of the press to photojournalism
and communications research.
With faculty colleagues A1 Stavit
sky and William Ryan, he has de
veloped courses on information
gathering, net resources for jour
nalism students and communica
tions law for a distance educa
tion project. Currently, he is
developing a communications
law site on the Internet.
In 1990, Gleason was the first
recipient of the School of Jour
nalism and Communications
Marshall Award for excellence in
teaching. He also received a
Poynter Institute award for Me
dia Studies Teaching Fellowship
for Ethics Professors and was one
of 21 educators selected in 1993
to attend the ninth annual Lead
ership Institute for Journalism
and Mass Communications orga
nized by the Freedom Forum
Media Studies Center.
Gleason will not be teaching in
the upcoming academic year be
cause the demands of being a
dean in the higher education sys
tem make it impossible to spend
time in the classroom, he said.
“I hope to continue to know
students and to be actively in
volved in the school’s activities,”
Gleason said. “That’s one of my
goals, although at this time I
don’t know how hard that will
be.”
Gleason has not decided if he
will pursue a permanent resi
dence as dean once his interim
position is over, and said if he
doesn’t, he wants to continue
teaching at the University.
Need committed and creative student
volunteers to advise the Health Center regarding
programs, sen/ices, finances, and health insurance.
Student advisors will spend about 1-2 hours per
week as members of the evolving Student Health
Advisory Committee (SHAC) and will guide the
Health Center in promoting a healthy campus
through the storm of health care reform.
Successful participants will gain an in-depth
understanding of health care delivery and its
financing, will learn about the health issues of
college students, and will develop interpersonal
skills and confidence.
Routine meetings are scheduled at 3p.m. Fridays,
allowing members to plan their class schedules
accordingly.
Applications can be picked up at the
Health Center front desk.
Completed applications should be
submitted to the Health Director's office
by Tuesday, May 20.
