Student Personnel Ser
vices is sponsoring a pizza par
ty today, May 16, from 4-4:30
p.m. in Clairmont Hall to
establish a list of positive Col
lege voters.
Once they compile the
list, they will call the voters
and inform them about a
possible upcoming June levy
(as of press time).
Past elections have pro
ven that voters are more apt to
vote down school elections in
May because there are so
many other issues on the
ballot. SPS wants to be
prepared in case it does fail
this time.
It is a campus-wide pro
ject, and any student who
wishes to volunteer to help out
is urged to contact Lee
Fawcett, assistant dean of sup
port services or Kathy Nelson,
public information publica
tions assistant.
“Volunteering would be
beneficial to anyone, because
besides helping out the College
it is a good chance to get in
volved in the election
process,” Art Hames, director
of counseling, said.

A new computer will soon
be installed in Clackamas
Community
College’s
chemistry lab to assist students
in learning some aspects of
chemistry.
“A (College) proposal
was submitted to the Pitts
burgh Conference and Exposi
tion, which is a group of
analytical chemists that ap
parently have some money
available for improving
chemistry instruction,” Hal
Bender, chemistry instructor,
said.
The proposal explained
how the College would use the
computer
to
improve
chemistry instruction, and
asked the conference to help
pay for one-half the cost of the
computer. Shortly thereafter,
the College was awarded with
a 1884 Pittsburgh Conference
Memorial College Grant in the
amount of $2,256. The total
estimated cost of the computer
will be $4,512.
Additional funds will
have to come from the College
which might not happen until
the next fiscal year, which
begins July 1.
“It is the same computer
that the biology lab has,”
Bender said. “The difference
is that it will be available to
chemistry students more readi
ly. The programs will also be
different.”
The computer will be
primarily for Chemistry 104,
105 and 106 students. Pro
grams which are being and
have been written are mainly
for 104 students, but they are
also available to Chemistry
204 classes.
The chemistry classes cur
rently have a couple of pro
grams available for student
use, but the biology computer
is not always available at con
venient times. “The new com
puter will allow more
chemistry students to have ac
cess to the programs than is
possible now,” Bender said.
Dont just
get a job with
your special skills.
Getan
advantage!
A specific job guarantee,
accelerated promotions and
a possible bonus are just
the start. With our new
Quality Enlistment Program,
your high school diploma
and special skills training
pay off from the beginning, proof that your special skill means
something to the Corps.
For example, your specialized training could guarantee you
a job like metal worker, electrician or construction surveyor
just to name a few of the 260 select jobs you could qualify for.
Also, by getting accelerated promotions, you’ll be making
more money from the day you finish recruit training. Your
first rank will be private first
class and, within 13 months,
you’ll be promoted to
corporal.
Another advantage of our
Quality Enlistment Program
is the chance to get a
bonus. Whether you qualify for one depends on the enlistment
option you choose.
The advantages add up quickly in our Quality Enlistment
Program. And if you qualify, you’ll have an advantage for life
few others can claim—the self-confidence and respect that
come with earning the title United States Marine.
Call 1-800-423-2600. In California, 1-800-252-0241.
