Gebbie to speak about AIDS
by Sherri Michaels
News Editor
Kristine Gebbie, Ad
ministrator of Oregon State
Health Division will be speaking
about women and healthcare:
Where do we go from here at
the ’8O’s Issues Breakfast on
campus Tuesday, Oct. 13.
Gebbie was billed by the
Oregonian, Mar. 29, 1987, as
having “built a reputation as a
take-charge leader, one who is
not shy about voicing her opi
nions or slow to make a deci
sion.” Gebbie will do just that
when she speaks on topics from
the most pressing healthcare
issues for women, to the
changes in health educa
tion/legislation and how they
affect women, to AIDS and the
single female. She will cover
these and many other vital ques-
tions about women and
healthcare next Tuesday at the
7:30 a.m. breakfast in the small
dining room. Cost is $4.50,
which includes breakfast.
The Focus on Women pro
gram, which is sponsoring this
and several other events wants to
“emphasize being in touch with
current issues that affect women,
and give women the chance to
meet with current women
leaders,” according to committee
member Bernie Nolan.
The Focus on Women pro
grams are designed for women
from the community, staff and
student populations.
Along with the ’80’s Issues
Breakfast there is a brown bag
lunch series that will feature
Sharon Hartsell for the first ses
sion, Oct. 8, 12:30-1:30 p.m.
Hartsell will be covering “Time
Management for Women” which
will focus on issues and techni
ques for women students and
staff who would like to manage
their time, not have time manage
them. The session will be held in
CC101.
If you would like more infor
mation about these programs or
other programs that are spon
sored by the Focus on Women
program, call the counseling of

Becky Hostetler, former vice
president of Student Govern
ment, resigned from office July
2, 1987, following continued
conflict with other ASG
members.
Hostetler expressed she was
forced out by the executive
cabinet consisting of Neale
Frothingham, ASG president;
Dana Dumolt, former assistant
to the president and currently
vice
president;
B.J.
Blumenkron, entertainment of
ficer; Ann Haller,former ad
ministrative assistant, and cur
rently assistant to the president.
The executive cabinet asked
Hostetler to resign based on the
following concerns as stated in a
memo by Frothingham: ir
responsibility, unreliability, not
being dependable, and lack of
academic study.
Hostetler is angry about these
charges, “I full filled my job to
what it was in the commitment.
I didn’t fullfill my job to
Neale’s standards...my stan
dards and priorities are dif
ferent than theirs (executive
cabinet).”
Before Hostetler resigned a
few meetings were held to find a
solution to the problems. “I felt
Staff Writer
Associated Student Govern
ment approved a proposal to in
crease fines for college parking
violations from $3.00 to $5.00.
“The increase is necessary to
increase the Student Emergency
Loan Fund,” said Neale
Frothingham, ASG President.
One-half of all revenue raised
from parking citations goes into
the fund.
The increase must be approved
by the Motor Vehicle Regulations
Committee, composed of three
students and three staff members.
The Student Emergency Loan
Fund is currently approximately
$8,500, according to Kathleen
Scheer, Financial Aid Coor
dinator.
As of Oct. 2, 48 students have
borrowed from the fund this
term, mostly to purchase text
books, said Scheer. The max
imum amount loaned is $50.
Scheer said because the proposed
parking fine increase is an ASG
matter, she would not comment
on the proposal.
However, due to credit re
quirements, Hostetler would have
been removed from office if she
hadn’t resigned. The Student
Government constitution says,
“an official must complete a
minimum of three credits in order
to appeal.” Hostetler completed
two credits during spring term,
which gave her no rights to ap
peal.
“I just wish that the com
munication would have been bet
ter...only being one side of the
coin I couldn’t change it,”
Frothingham said to explain his
feeling that this was a com
munications gap.
Hostetler doesn’t have a posi
tion at ASG, but still helps out as
a volunteer. “Neale had said at
the time that I wouldn’t make a
good officer, but a good senator.
That proves my whole point. As
senator I only could help out,”
Hostetler concluded. “She has
skills to do the job of a senator,
but can’t be a constructive
member of the cabinet,”
Frothingham said.
