Controversy
continued from page 1A
date who has said that extinction
is not an option,” Pope said. He is
“a candidate we still need to edu
cate, a candidate we still need to
reach.”
His point proved to be a hard
sell to Nader supporters, who said
Pope’s endorsement of Gore was
ridiculous because Nader is more
in line with the club’s environ
mental views.
Pointing out that Gore was not
in favor of protecting old-growth
forests, the protesters questioned
Pope about his choice.
While Pope said he thinks cut
ting needs to be stopped in all na
tional forests, he said he believes
Gore is willing to work with envi
ronmentalists on the issue.
‘‘If there are two candidates, and
neither of them will take that that
pledge with me on inauguration
day, then I’ll say a plague on both
your houses,” Pope said. “But I be
lieve Gore’s heart is in this.”
At one point, a protester asked
who Pope would vote for if the
race was between only Gore and
Nader.
Pope replied his vote would go
to Nader.
But because that is not the situa
tion, Pope emphasized people
must use their votes wisely.
“A vote for Nader is effectively a
vote for Bush, or at most a protest,”
Pope said. “It’s fine to protest, but
election day is not the time to do
it.”
Many people at the press confer
ence were supporters of both Nad
er and Gore, said Don St. Clair, a
coordinator with the Greens for
Gore Coalition (GFGC). A great
deal of them, however, are “mak
ing strategic decisions” with their
votes.
One of those voters is Steve Her
man, who said he is sticking with
Nader because he is an “honest,
committed individual who’s dedi
cated his whole life to help peo
ple.”
Herman, who is a student coor
dinator with Lane Victory 2000 —
the coalition formed to support
Nader — said his parents taught
him that “when you want some
thing, you go for that something.
You don’t settle.”
He said he doesn’t think voting
for Nader will make much of a dif
ference in the Bush vs. Gore race
— adding that Oregon’s electoral
votes are insignificant in the larger
scheme of things. And Nader, he
said, does need the support: In or
der to receive funding for future
endeavors, he must obtain 5 per
cent of the vote.
Elavid Resseguie, co-founder of
the GFGC, said his group is en
couraging people to hold their
votes until the last minute. If it
looks like Gore will win, they can
still vote for Nader — thus giving
him a voice — without worrying
that Bush will be president.
“I’m very concerned that my fel
low Greens will act as spoilers and
push the electoral votes to Bush,”
he said.
There are those, however, who
believe the warnings that voting
for Nader will harm Gore are exag
gerated. Nader supporter Sarah
Charlesworth said she thinks the
situation may actually be the re
verse: So many people in Oregon
support Nader, she said, that vot
ing for Gore would probably give
Bush more votes.
“I’m scared that every one of our
votes are going to go for Bush,” she
said.
Camilla Feibelman, national di
rector for the Sierra Student Coali
tion, expressed frustration that en
vironmentalists were dividing
themselves when they should be
sticking together.
Outside the debates in Boston,
she said, Nader and Gore support
ers clashed both verbally and
physically — a situation that
scared her.
“The reason that scares me is
that come Nov. 8, we’ll have to
come back together,” she said.
“We’re on the same side of the
fight.”

the counseling center to exist, but
private consultation can cost $90
100 per session.
Dr. Gerald Fleischli, medical di
rector of the Student Health Center,
chaired the search committee that
hired Holmes. He said she has a
clear vision about the role of the
counseling center.
“She’s an outstanding leader and
professional,” he said. “There’s ab
solutely no question in her ability.”
Fleischli said he hopes to see an
increase in collaboration between
the health center and the counsel
ing center.
Donna Leavy, office manager for
Student Affairs, a committee that
addresses student issues, said the
counseling center is an important
service for students.
“It’s a wonderful resource be
cause everyone gets stressed out
with life from time to time and
could use some help,” she said.
Leavy, who sat in on meetings of
the search committee that hired
Holmes, said she is impressed by
Holmes’ experience and energy.
The University Counseling and
Testing Center, located on the sec
ond floor of the Student Health
Center, provides services such as
emergency counseling, therapy
groups and workshops. The center
is open Monday through Friday

Child care

“There is a continual process of
change that reflects social change
and parent needs,” Reynolds said.
“We try to make sure that what we
are doing reflects knowledge in the
best practice in early education.”

from the demands of student
protests and activism 30 years ago,
when parents met with University
president Robert Clark and a com
mittee was appointed that allocat
ed “temporary” space for a child
care center.
Since then, Reynolds has seen
the program grow, though it still of
fers services to improve education
al access for student parents, en
hance the early education of young
children and serve as a learning site
for University students.
Reynolds said the development
of a new building is on the top of
the list of priorities for student
building fees. The CCDC program
still uses the house that was allocat
ed for child care 30 years ago, but a
more permanent space would al
low the program to serve an ex
panded range of age groups and im
prove the quality of services
provided, he said.
Roughly one-third of the CCDC
budget comes from student inci
dental fees, while parent income
generates the rest. This year,
$299,348 of the CCDC’s $769' 251
budget comes from incidental fees.
Megan Wheeler, lead teacher in
the EMU Toddler Program, said
when she began working for the
program in 1982, the staffing and
funding for curriculum supplies
were not nearly what they are now.
Wheeler said she hopes more re
spect is given to teachers and edu
cators in general in the future.
“We live in a society that does
not respect early childhood educa
tion because it is a field that is pre
dominantly women,” Wheeler
said.
Associate Vice President of Insti
tutional Affairs Janette Oliver, who
attended the University in the
1970s and began working for the
University in the 1980s, has seen
the changes in child care through
the years. She said the University is
friendlier to families than it has
been in the past, when there were
fewer options available.
“We take certain things for grant
ed today. We take the politics and
the visibility of child care for grant
ed,” Oliver said. “We assume that
parents are going to have child
care.”
She also said that culture has
shifted in regard to gender expecta
tions in child care.
“There was a time that the as
sumption was, especially if you
were female, that you would stay
home, not as an option, but as a re
quirement,” Oliver said.
