University student and store clerk Jim Thomson checks the identification of Jason Schwisow, also a University student, at the Willamette
Plaza Liquor Store, where the business of students is extremely common.

“drug-of-choice for underage
folks.” Last year OLCC conducted
90 sting operations on stores and
bars in Lane County and the sur
rounding area; the commission’s
goal is to check 10 percent of Ore
gon’s 8,000 licensees statewide.
No matter what measures are
taken, minors still seem to be
making their way to local bars and
liquor stores.
“There’s always people that slide
by who have a good ID,” Cheerful
Tortoise bartender Billy Brown
said. He said if he forgot to check an
ID and was caught, he would be
fined $150 and lose his job.
“It’s not worth it to let in anyone
underage, ’ ’ Brown said.
Zorah Rose, owner of Premium
Pour Bartending School and bar
tender at the Wild Duck Brewery,
agreed.
“You order a drink, and I’ll ask
for ID. I have to see it or you can’t
drink,” Rose said. If she cards
someone and their ID is fake, Rose
confiscates it.
“I’m not out to get someone in
trouble,” she said. “But if I hand
that ID back, they’re gonna do it
again.”
Rose estimates that 2 percent of
IDs she checks are fake — most
commonly the ID is just someone
else’s, and she uses methods to de
termine whether it’s legitimate or
not.
“I turn to the person next to them
and ask, ‘Is this your friend? What’s
your friend’s name?”’ Rose said. Of
ten, they can’t say.
State-issued identification cards
are a popular way for minors to by
pass the age gap, because a driver’s
license doesn’t have to be used and
the cards are easy to get.
“Some people will come zoom
ing up here in a brand new Beamer
with brand new clothes on and pull
out an ID card,” Coldeen said.
“Technically we could turn them in
(if they’re minors).”
He added that students should
think twice before drinking alcohol
if they’re underage.
“It’s just not worth it,” Coldeen
said. “The one time you get caught,
it’s over.”

OLCC tightens
minor in possession laws
The Oregon Liquor Control
Commission is cracking down on
youths with minor in possession
charges who don't show, up in
court. Previous procedures al*
lowed offenders to skip their
court dates without consequence.
Starting Jan, 1, courts have
been suspending the driver’s li
censes of offenders who fail to
make their scheduled appear
ance, as mandated by the Oregon
legislature with the passage of
H.B. 2560 last session.
Now, minors charged with an
MTP who don’t show np in
court will lose their license and
get a fine.
OLCC lauded the new liquor
law.
"IPs an effective tool to get the
attention of minors when it
comes to und ing,"
OLCC director Pamela Erickson
said. “It will act as a deterrent to
young people who find that ha v
Inga carls a very important part
of Me.”

PFC
continued from pagelA
by the PFC (last year), ”he said.
PFC granted an increase of more
than $15,000 to Campus Recycling.
The group, which previously put
budget requests on the ballot, has a
budget of $100,000 this year. PFC
increased the Campus Recycling
budget because of rising labor costs
and expanded programs.
Campus Recycling requested a
$25,000 increase because the pro
gram has not received an increase in
funding in 10 years, but PFC mem
bers said they did not want to grant
such a large increase in just one year.
Hearings for Project Saferide and
its new counterpart, Night Ride, were
scheduled for Thursday but could
not be held because of time con
straints. Both groups’ hearings have
been rescheduled for 5 p.m. Feb. 5.
During a 10-hour hearing session
Jan. 26, PFC decided budgets for
four programs previously funded by
ballot — the University Counseling
and Testing Center, the Career Cen
ter, the Mentor Program and the
SRC. PFC allocated $537,428 for the
SRC 2002-2003 budget. This year,
SRC will receive about $382,951 in
incidental fees.
Increased utility costs accounted
for about $95,000 of the increase
SRC received, Madden said. In the
past, the University has picked up
the tab for SRC utilities, but in 2002
03, half of utilities expenses will
come out of the SRC budget, she
said. The increase will also allow
SRC to hire someone for a new “pre
ventative maintenance” position to
repair exercise equipment, she said.
PFC hearings scheduled on Mon
day include the Returning Students
Association and Model UN. On
Tuesday, PFC hearings include the
Disability Services Project, Lane
Transit District, and ASUO Legal
Services. Hearings scheduled
Thursday include the ASUO Execu
tive and Designated Driver Shuttle.
A complete PFC hearings schedule
for Jan. 28 through 31 is available on
line at www.dailyemerald.com.
