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.

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.
