IN BRIEF
Fall Cultural events
celebrate Lewis and Clark
As part of a statewide Oregon arche
ology celebration and the Lewis and
Clark Bicentennial, the University Mu
seum of Natural and Cultural History
is hosting a four-part lecture series ti
tled “Encountering a Continent: Reflec
tions on the Lewis and Clark Bicenten
nial. ” The first lecture begins tonight at
5:30 p.m. in room 110 of the Knight
Law Center.
All lectures are free and receptions
will follow each lecture at the muse
um, located at 1680 E. 15th Ave. The
event is co-sponsored by the Lane
County Historical Museum.
Dr. Ken Karsmizki, executive di
rector of the Columbia Gorge Dis
covery Center, will present the first
lecture in the series, “Fort Clatsop:
Where Has it Been the Last 200
Years?” The lecture will focus on
what archaeological research and
local traditions reveal about the lo
cation of the Fort Clatsop campsite.
Continuing every Friday until Nov.
4, the series also includes:
• Oct. 21: “Manuscripts and Printed
Maps Relating to the Lewis and Clark
Expedition: 1803-1814”
• Oct. 28: “Native Plant Use in the
Pacific Northwest: Reflections on the
Lewis and Clark Journals and the Ar
chaeological Record”
• Nov. 4: “An Indigenous
Woman’s View of Lewis and Clark:
Who Were Those Smelly Men in
that Silly Dugout?”
Judi Pruitt, administrative program
coordinator of the museum, said the
lecture series will also give the com
munity opportunities to make dona
tions to a fund that would help rebuild
Fort Clatsop. The fund was established
by the Lewis & Clark National Historic
Park after a fire destroyed the replica
fort earlier this month.

Banking: Some students choose credit unions

is good for a one-time refund of an un
expected service fee, such as an over
draft or insufficient funds fee, accord
ing to the Bank of America Web site.
Junior journalism major Nikki
Corliss recommended the services of
First Tech Credit Union.
“I mainly picked them because my
parents picked them,” Corliss said.
“It’s not like I did extra research ... but
I’ve definitely been happy with them.”
Corliss said the credit union has a lot
of programs for children, which she
was involved with, that culminate in
getting a debit card and a credit card by
age 18. She said she especially likes the
online banking, savings and loan serv
ices, although she said the lack of
tellers and ATMs in the Eugene area is
a disadvantage.
Credit unions differ from banks in
that they are owned by their members
instead of far-off shareholders, said
Laura Illig, director of marketing at
Oregon Community Credit Union.
‘‘(The banks’) goal is to make as
much money as possible for their
shareholders,” Illig said. “We come at
it from a different direction.”
The Oregon Community Credit
Union, established in 1956 by Univer
sity employees, now serves people in
10 Oregon counties. It offers services
similar to those of most banks, such as
free student checking.
Illig said many students join the
credit union, and one of the credit
union’s current challenges is finding
ways to keep these students as mem
bers if they move out of the area after
graduation. Two new branches have
been built in Portland for this reason.
To give members easier access to
their money, Illig said the credit union
is part of Shared Branching, an
arrangement between credit unions
worldwide, which allows members to
use other credit unions’ ATMs for free.

Charity: Employees enjoy chance to give

people, compassion and inspiration.”
Since 1996, the bookstore coffee
shop workers have donated more than
$60,000 in tips to local organizations.
Each year they choose a different or
ganization. Customers donate their
tips in a frog jar on the counter.
‘‘As a nonprofit, service-oriented
business, we thought, ‘Why should
one area of the store get tips over the
others?’” Williams said. “So we brain
stormed and the baristas chose the
groups to benefit. It’s from their hearts
to work to do great things. ”
Erin Thomason, lead barista and
University alumna, said she welcomes
the opportunity to work with charities
and give back to the community.
“This is just a little way for me to
help,” Thomason said. “If you can,
why not help someone?”
The money will go directly to Shel
terCare services that house the home
less. ShelterCare helps about 1,500
people a year, said Susan Ban, execu
tive director of ShelterCare.
“At any given time we have 100
adults with psychiatric disorders in
specialty programs, and right now we
have 24 units housing families,” she
said. “This is a great help, and we’re
very thankful on behalf of our resi
dents and on behalf of ShelterCare.”
ShelterCare Development Director
Evelyn Andertonsaid she was thankful
for the support of all the nonprofit or
ganizations in Eugene that are con
stantly working together to benefit the
community.
“Eugene needs organizations like
the UO Bookstore,” Anderton said.
"It’s so moving to see compassionate
and generous people helping to make
the community a warm and welcom
ing place for everybody. ”
The 2005-06 tips will benefit the
Child Advocacy Center of Lane Coun
ty, a nonprofit organization dedicated
to helping lessen the trauma experi
enced by abused children going
through the judicial process system.
The coffee shop’s goal is to raise
$10,000.
“We’re all a part of a greater com
munity,” Williams said. “We can make
a difference.”
