obligation bonds awarded by the state
in the 2001 Legislative session, Asso
ciate Vice President for Governmental
Affairs Michael Redding said.
Private donors are also being so
licited for the project.
The two new wings will be at
tached to the Music Building near
the rear of Beall Concert Hall, paral
lel to Pioneer Cemetery. Stoltz said
the Music Building will continue to
be one unified facility.
"We need additional practice
rooms, classrooms, faculty rooms,
GTF offices, as well as administrative
(offices)," she said, adding that
though the building was built to
serve 300 students, it now accommo
dates 500 music majors and 4,000 of
non-music majors.
"There (are)) definitely more
(students) than there's time for,"
music education major Mishaela
DeVries said.
The building is so crowded that stu
dents who can't find empty practice
rooms routinely play in the halls and
even the bathrooms, which may dam
age students' hearing, Boyd said.
"It's just not a good learning envi
ronment," she said.
The appropriation was inserted
into a huge federal funding bill at the
University's request. The $820 billion
Consolidated Appropriations Art is a
done deal, having received President
Bush's signature Jan. 23.
"We enjoy the support of the
whole Oregon delegation on this,"
Boyd said. "We're really lucky in
Oregon to have a delegation that
works well together."
Representatives for Smith, Sen.
Ron Wyden, D-Ore., and Rep. Peter
DeFazio, D-Ore., all said they
wholeheartedly supported the
appropriation.
"The University of Oregon has one
of the largest and top-notch music in
stitutions in the West and the pro
gram has been a positive influence in
the community," DeFazio spokes
woman Kristie Greco said.
Students said the construction and
renovation will make their lives just a
little bit easier.
"A little bit more rehearsal space
makes all the difference," said Cristi
na Cruz Uribe, a viola performance
major. "We need it."

RECYCLING
continued from page 1
the bigger problem lies in nationwide
consumerism.
"People buy way too much plastic,"
he said. "They should know that most
new products are convenient, but
they're not recyclable."
Although BRING has tried to better
educate Lane County residents about
how to recycle plastic, Daniel said
most people neglect the rules because
they think it's a nuisance to separate
all of their plastic products.
"The public does an OK job," she
said. "But we've never been able to
switch the perspective."
Nonetheless, new organizations
continue to pop up across the
country to accommodate for plastic
recycling.
According to the American Plastics
Council's industry Web site at
http://www.plasticsresource.com,
the number of plastics-recycling
businesses has nearly tripled in re
cent years. More than 1,700 busi
nesses currently handle and reclaim
post-consumer plastics to decrease
the volume of waste and avoid rising
fees at landfills.
To help recycling businesses cate
gorize incoming plastics, the Society
of the Plastics Industry Inc. intro
duced its voluntary resin identifica
tion coding system in 1988 at the
urging of recyclers nationwide.
Hence, plastics are categorized into
different grades, which help compa
nies like BRING specify their recy
cling requirements.
If consumers can avoid plastic,
Sanders said, the healthier and
more environmentally friendly al
ternative is glass because it doesn't
transmit chemicals to its contents,
and it is recycled through closed
loop circuits, meaning certain glass
types are continually used for cer
tain products.
"If I have the choice, I would much
rather buy in glass or paper instead of
plastic," he said.
Considering the difficulty of asking
people to stop buying plastic, Sanders
said consumers should be more
aware of buying decisions.
"If you're gonna buy plastic, check
post-consumer content for recycling
information," he said. "Otherwise
don't buy it."

REAGAN
continued from page 1
"I think that it is important to
have people protesting on both
sides," Breaden said. "I don't think
it's trying to rub something in the
face of other political parties."
Freshman Jenny Culbertson has
been a member of the College Re
publicans since the fall, and she
«
was glad the group was celebrat
ing the birth and accomplish
ments of one of her favoriu
presidents.
"He was a great president, and w«
should do something to remembei
him," she said.
