Clackamas community college THE PRINT Vol. XIX, No. 6 November 19, 1985 Man assaulted near Barlow Hall An unidentified man was assaulted last Thursday night behind Barlow Hall at the east end of campus by an unknown assailant just before 7 p.m.. The victim was transported to Willamette Falls Hospital by ambulance, where he was treated and released. The vic tim declined to file a police report on the incident. According to a memo by Jim Roberts, dean of students, the incident was “the second violent or near-violent incident in the history of the college.” The other incident involved an attempted assault of a part- time female staff member in 1982. Roberts encouraged students and staff to walk with caution when on campus at night. Stan Johnson, public safety chief, said, “It must have been sparked off pretty spon taneously, because the fight took place right next to the doors to Barlow. Classes were about to start, so there must have been people around.” Johnson said there have been a few notable criminal in cidents around campus this year, including a four-hour rampage throughout the cam pus by vandals one night in October and the theft of some tools by convicts. Johnson noted that the rate of criminal incidence at the College is about the same as it was last year at this time with five ma jor incidents. He said, “Really, compared to places like Portland State, who get about three of these assaults every week, this inci dent Thursday is nothing. We really haven’t had much to worry about up here.” Johnson said there is a cer tain element among the students that have a past history of crime. The main reason they are at the College is to either fulfill community service requirements at the En vironmental Learning Center or to attend classes to lift themselves out of their criminal lifestyle.

Photo by Dan Wheeler violations draw few student appeals By Loretta Carter Staff Writer Campus parking violations are becoming familiar to an in- creasing number of students, it was reported by the Public Safety Division last week. Last week 50 tickets were Citation awaits College motorist. Photo by Dan Wheeler issued for improper parking and the count has been in this area on a weekly basis. Most of the improper parking oc curs near the yellow painted curbs or in the handicap zones. These violations are automatic citations that carry a fine of $3 for each violation. Any person receiving a cita tion has the right to an appeal. The appeals are to be in writing and taken to John Hooley, chairman of appeals at his office located in Barlow Hall on the second floor. Hooley said, “I am surpris ed that not many appeals are brought forward considering the high amount of citations given out. So far only six ap peals have been brought for ward for this year.” Most of the appeals from last year were made by com munity people rather than students. These people told the appeals board that the mark ings on the restricted zones weren’t plainly marked for visibility.The appeals commit tee went out to see for themselves because of the large number of complaints about the visibility of the zones. The markings were, indeed, washed or faded away. All ap peals pending at that time were granted. The restricted zones were then repainted making them visible. Hooley encouraged people to write an appeal if they feel the citations are unjust. To write an appeal, write your verson of what happened or why you parked where yu did, an then submit it to the Chair man of Appeals. Relax with the president Page 4 Passionate art at Pauling Page 5
