ous continued from page 1 so many people who are qualified have access to higher education,” she said. Bridget Bums, student body presi dent of Oregon State University and one of the most vocal critics of the state’s higher education policy, said she’s not surprised by the report. “The state of Oregon has made a divestment in public education,” Bums said. “Oregon State (Universi ty) and the University of Oregon are social programs — the Legislature keeps decreasing our funding.” Oregon Student Association exec utive director Alisa Simmons said the lobbying group also expected the unfavorable results. “I’d like to say I’m shocked by these grades, but in reality we’ve known this for a while,” she said, cit ing reductions in low-income sub sidy programs like the Oregon Op portunity Grant. “Oregonians are being locked out of education. ” The state did post-modest im provements in preparation, partici pation and benefits. Those cate gories measure K-12 education, record the number of students being educated and show how higher edu cation improves the state, respec tively. The full report is available at www. highereducation. org. Goldschmidt cautioned that the new figures reflected data collected in 2000 and 2001, and she said uni versities’ performances for this year won’t be measured until the next re port is issued in 2004. “It shows where all the states were before the economy slumped,” she said.

ArH M0/*> 10 Art and Conservation Art P 02 Jan Cavanaugh: Office: 213 LA, Ext. 6-5027 Meets: 12-12:50 MWF.166 la Format: Lecture Average class size: 30 Prereqs: One of the surveys in Western or Asian art suggested Description: Until the recent controversies, such as those over the cleaning of the Sistine Chapel or Leonardo’s Last Supper, the area of art conservation has received little scholarly attention by art historians generally, even though a more accurate interpretation of the meaning of an art work may depend partly on an understanding of its physical condition and alterations in that condition over time. This course explores the principles and history of art conservation as it has evolved from the thirteenth century to the present. Emphasis will be placed on theoretical issues, including those of authenticity; the artist’s original intent; p reservation versus restoration versus renovation; cultural attitudes toward the past as well as changing political, religious, and social values; the influence of fluctuations in taste and fashion on the practices of art conservation; the advent of the conservation s science in the mid-twentieth century; and the role of the conservator in relation to § contemporary, ephemeral art forms.

(U WIRE) — Many students flock to off campus parties on weekends. When students are off-campus, they might not worry about resident assistants catching them, but they do have to watch out for other pitfalls. Every body knows — Boston College offi cials and police officers included — that at most parties, underage stu dents break the law by drinking, and the apartment's residents break the law by serving them. When they're caught, students often face serious consequences. When student Laura Cassato had a party last year at her Cleve land Circle apartment, Boston Col lege police officers knocked on her door twice. The first time the po lice came by, they told Cassato, “Be quiet and you'll be fine. Con tinue having fun but keep it down.” The second time they told her, “It’s loud. Get everyone out of here.” The police verified that Cas sato and her roommates were 21, then left. A few weeks later, Cassato re ceived a letter from the university, which warned her that any further incidents may result in punishments on her housing status. “It's like a Catch-22,” said Cassato. “You're fi nally outside the jurisdiction of BCPD, but residents still have to deal with ordinances.” In a letter obtained by The Heights addressed to students who hosted a off-campus party that was visited by police, Michael Ryan, as sociate dean for student develop ment, warned that misconduct, dis ruption of the neighborhood, disturbing of the peace and alcohol violations would likely result in ar rests or court summons and also possible University judicial actions. The University also sent the letter to the residents’ parents. “We expect students to behave on and off campus,” Dean for Stu dent Development Robert Sher wood said. Boston College may con front a student if he or she is “in violation of local, state, or federal laws which materially or adversely affects the individual’s suitability as a member of the Boston College community and violates university student codes of conduct. A finding of guilty or an admission of suffi cient facts in criminal court may be used as evidence against a student at an on-campus judicial hearing,” according to the Boston College Web site.
