The course will offer lectures, Extra hiring policies set A new procedure relating to filling extra-activity/extra-curricu­ lar assignments at the College has been implemented by the Clack­ amas Community College Board of Education, according to Dr. John Hakanson, College president. Extra-activity / extra-curricu­ lar assignments include part-time appointments of athletic directors; coaches and assistant coaches; di­ rectors of drama, jazz ensemble, swing choir, pep band, speech and intramural sports;and sports train­ ers. Opening of these positions, as they arise, will be brought to the public's attention through adver­ tising. "In the past, we didn't adver­ tise these positions," said Jim Pain­ ter, personnel officer, position and we are not hiring as a combined position. "But if that person should like to apply for the extra-activity po­ sition, the candidate will be con­ sidered," he said. "Individualsfrom the existing staff may also be con­ sidered for the appointment if they desire." "This is not to be confused with overload, which is an extra class being taught by an already full-time instructor." A notice to all applicants will be included with all job opening releases explaining extra assign­ ments over and above the regular duties which are filled by quali­ fied full-time staff members on an extra - pay basis, according to Hakanson. "In the future, we will make the candidates aware that there are extra-activity / extra-curricular po­ sitions available," Painter said. "We are not advertising as a combined "We hope to entice qualified persons by advertising these extra assignment openings," Painter said. "It's tough to find a part-time coach when all you're going to pay them is about $1,700 a year." Local NORML club attempts Oregon statute amendment The general goal of the Nation­ al Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML) is try­ ing to "work towards the total re­ moval of all penalties for posses­ sion and cultivation of marijuana for personal use," said Mike Mc­ Carty, Associated Student Govern­ ment president and president of the NORML chapter on campus. The NORML club at the Col­ lege is taking action along that line. "We are trying to further amend Oregon statutes and trying to make our laws even more specific," Mc­ Carty said. Currently in Oregon, the po­ ssession of one ounce of mari- juana is a misdemeanor offense and cultivating or buying marijuana is a felony offense, according to Mc­ Carty. A petition will be circulated in Oregon within a couple of weeks, McCarty said. The petition will ask that the current laws be amended to re­ duce manufacturing, transporting, furnishing less than one ounce of marijuana, or cultivating 10 plants, from Class B felony to a violation, subject to a $10 maximum fine, McCarty said. Violation penalty for possession of less than one ounce and main­ taining a place where less than one ounce is found would be reduced from a $100 to $10 maximum fine. The amendment also would a- bolish the offense of frequenting or remaining ata place where mari­ juana is found. Persons subject to marijuana violation arrest would be cited and not taken into cus­ tody. Oregon was the first state to enact the $100 penalty for pos- session of less than one ounce of marijuana. "It's like the carrot in front of the horse cliche -- they let us pos­ sess marijuana, but they make cul­ tivation and buying marijuana a felony, McCarty said. discussions and research on print and electronic media, its history, libel, ethics, theories of the press and the effects of mass media on today's society.
