Subsidy
continued from page 1A
Many professors, including for
mer faculty senate president
James Earl, a professor in the Eng
lish department, have become
outspoken critics of the growing
athletic spending at the Universi
ty and at other institutions across
the country.
In his final remarks as presi
dent, Earl called the Autzen Stadi
um expansion a “misjudgment on
a titanic scale” and said the pro
ject’s nearly $80 million price tag
could fund the Honors College for
140 years.
The $2 million subsidy has long
been a focus in the debate, as edu
cators have questioned the need to
give money to athletics when,
they claim, academic programs
are underfunded and faculty
members are leaving Oregon for
better-paying posts elsewhere.
During his announcement,
Frohnmayer said cutting the sub
sidy would open up $1 million for
professors’ salaries. ^
Richard Sundt, an associate pro
fessor of art history, has been one of
the most outspoken critics of athlet
ic funding, and he said he was
pleased with the announcement.
“I’m gratified to see we’ll get
some of that money back,” he
said. “I could see any number of
programs that could benefit from
this money.”
Sundt said he first began criticiz
ing the subsidy when it was intro
duced in the early 1990s by then
University President Myles Brand.
Sundt said he finds it ironic that
Brand, who is now the president of
Indiana University, has become one
of the country’s leading administra
tors to speak out against inflated
athletic budgets.
While Sundt said the move was a
good one, he added that he was dis
pleased that it only came about be
cause of intense faculty lobbying and
not through the administration itself.
“This happened simply because
of the movement of the faculty,”
he said. “We haven’t had the sup
port of the administration.”
No-sweat
continued from page 1A
Ultimately, the customers’ response to the product
will determine whether the bookstore will continue
to sell these shirts in the future, Williams said.
The class project has been modeled after the
sweat-free zone at Occidental College in Los Ange
les. Occidental’s zone has worked well; the first set
of union-made shirts sold out quickly, according to
information supplied by CCFL. Members of the
group are also keeping in touch with activists at
UCLA who are working on a similar project.
A rally featuring music and guest speakers, in
cluding Dreiling and Peter Dreyer from Occidental
University, will be held Monday at 11:30 a.m. in the
EMU Amphitheater. CCFL members hope to raise
awareness about working conditions in factories and
publicize the upcoming no-sweat zone.
Many students, faculty and alumni are signing on
to the no-sweat zone campaign.
“We have collected a large number of signatures
and have a lot of support from the University com
munity, as well as local unions,” CCFL member
Andy Ott said.
The CCFL also has the support of a number of Uni
versity groups, including the College Democrats, the
Campus Greens and the Human Rights Alliance.
Students and faculty can sign the no-sweat zone
petition outside the Survival Center office or on the
door of Room 740 in Prince Lucien Campbell Hall.
Fake IDs
continued from page 1A
linked to using the fake California IDs
told OLCC inspectors that Basham
made them and sold them to the stu
dents for $50 to $80, Palke said.
Palke said OLCC received coun
terfeit California IDs from Albert
son’s, PC Market, Taylor’s, Rennie’s
Landing and 7-11, as well as another
convenience store, all in the Univer
sity area. Palke said that although
Basham could face felony counter
feit charges, the severity of the
charges lies with the district attor
ney’s office.
“This is more serious than stu
dents realize,” Palke said. “Use of
false identification is becoming big
because of the ease of computers and
the Internet.”
OLCC officials said the similarity
of the IDs led to the investigation.
“One of the keys to the investigation
is that they all had the same appear
ance, tipping us off to the fact that
these IDs were most likely all made
with the same computer,” Palke said.
Recent technological advances
were helpful to the success of the
OLCC investigation.
“As we were investigating the
counterfeit California licenses, we
asked for a DMV photo of Basham
and discovered it was his picture on
the fraudulent Oregon license,” said
OLCC Inspector Steve Syron. “When
we cited Basham for use of the Ore
gon license, we advised him of our in
vestigation into the creation and sale
of fraudulent California licenses.”
The Department of Motor Vehicles
just recently began storing individu
als’ pictures in its computer systems.
The OLCC has seen five or six cas
es of counterfeit ID rings in the last
couple years, Palke said. “In the
short run it’s thrilling, but with the
felony charges an individual can
face, [producers of fake IDs] can be
forced to give up a lot of rights,”
Palke said.
Taylor’s bar manager Justin Walker
said his staff regularly sees fake IDs.
“Being this close to campus, we’re
always on the lookout,” he said. “If
there is one thing that I tell my door
men, it’s ID, ID, ID.”
Harrison Fishback, a bartender
and doorman at Rennie’s Landing,
said employees there usually confis
cate one to three fake IDs a night.
“We see more than we’d like to,”
he said, “but probably about the av
erage number for a campus-area bar.”
Fishback added that Rennie’s
Landing keeps all the IDs that are
confiscated in a notebook, where the
confiscating employee writes infor
mation regarding the ID and the inci
dent. Once a page becomes filled, it
is handed over to the OLCC.
If servers are found to have provid
ed alcohol to a minor, their permit,
which the OLCC requires to be able to
work, can be taken from them, or they
may receive a fine. “A server’s permit
— it’s your livelihood,” Palke said.
“Most of the time [servers] check pret
ty hard.” The establishment also gets
punished; if a server provides alcohol
to a minor, his or her employer can
also receive a hefty fine.
Basham is scheduled to appear in
Lane County Circuit Court on June 7
on the charges stemming from the at
tempted purchase of alcoholic bev
erages at Albertson’s supermarket.
Charges from the alleged production
of the California IDs are still pending.
