News Briefs
OSA releases survey
on student loans
The Oregon Student Associ
ation cited an overwhelming
student reliance on loans in the
results of their Student Opin
ion Survey, entitled “Back to
School UN-SALE,” Sept. 2. The
survey included 428 students
from all Oregon University Sys
tem campuses.
“The Oregon Need Grant
currently covers only 11 per
cent of educational costs,” said
ASUO President Geneva Wort
man.
At an EMU Amphitheater
press conference, OSA student
officials also released statistics
contending that OUS faculty
compensation is in need of a
dramatic increase.
“With some salaries (more
than] $16,000 below the na
tional average, Oregon univer
sities have a difficult time re
cruiting new faculty members,”
said an OSA fact sheet.
The disproportionate
amount of student borrowing
and the low standing of OUS
faculty compensation will
hamper the economy of Oregon
as a whole, OSA officials said.
Art professor wins
award in New York
A University artist's design
received one of only seven
awards presented at a national
exhibit in New York.
Leon Johnson, an assistant
professor of fine arts, won the
Columbus College of Art and
Design Award for Technologi
cally Integrated Media at the
41st Annual Exhibition of the
Chautauqua Center for the Vi
sual Arts, The $300 award is
presented to art works that use
technology as an artistic medi
um.
Johnson’s award-winning
diptych pairs a black and white
self-portrait with a color satu
rated image of a man wearing
lace pants. The images were
scanned and manipulated
through a computer to produce
an ink jet print
Johnson says the design was
sought to create a dialogue
about the truth and fantasy of
the roles men engage in and to
elicit suspicion of these sup
posed irreconcilable images.
Twenty-seven artists were fi
nally selected to exhibit 83
works in the juried show.
