NEWS Foundation members praised by Tom Golden Staff Writer “In the last two to three years the Foundation has developed a sense of what it can be,” said Foundation President Ken Fosheim. “The Foundation is a vehicle to pull resources from the community to assist students or faculty.” Since 1967 the Clackamas Community College Founda tion has been making contacts with businesses and people in the community who have money or other resources to donate to the college for scholarships, special staff pro jects, or to meet critical needs of students so they can stay in school. Critical needs include such things, “as emergency medical bills, putting food in the refrigerator or keeping the (student’s) heat or water from being shut off,” according to Fosheim. The Foundation’s Board of Directors, which meets every three months, is comprised of 29 people from a variety of oc cupations and positions of leadership in the community, coordinated through the office erf Beverly Fulmore, College Advancement Coordinator. David Dickson is the ad ministrative liaison to the col lege. John Keyser, College President is the group’s secretary. Fosheim is quick to point out that Keyser, “is a ma jor point man in contacts with the community. The Founda tion receives all of his support.” Currently there are no students involved with the Board although Student Body Presi dent Neale Frothingham is pur suing the creation of a student liaison position. “They don 't ask for a lot of recognition” The Foundation is a non profit organization. Requests for funds are made by the Financial Aid Office. The foun dation makes 13 scholarships available to the 13 high schools in the college region (including the Sabin School Center, North Clackamas Christian and LaSalle). These scholarships are supported by individual businesses. Other means of generating finances include a phone-a-thon, a golf tournament, and staff donations. Fosheim notes that, “the foun dation is dependent on volunteers who network the community for resources1.” Fosheim had nothing but praise for the members of the foundation. “They don’t ask for a lot of recognition.” Fosheim said that, “the satisfaction of knowing they’ve helped a student come to the college who wouldn’t have been able to otherwise,” is a main reason for involvement. U.S., Iran need face-to- face communication by Sherri Michaels News Editor The last few weeks have given way to worsening relations bet ween the United States and Iran. Either Iran has been bombing or shooting missiles at tankers and other ships flying under or in conjunction with the American flag or the United States has bombed Iranian ships and oil rigs. Last week an embargo on Ira nian exports to the United States, ranging from oil to caviar, was announced by Presi dent Reagan. There were fur ther curbs on American exports to Iran. However, the latest wage of war is the spurn of Iran in the U.S.’s bid for face-to-face talks, cited “The Oregonian,” Nov. 2: “We are prepared for a structured, authoritative dialogue with the Iranian government at a responsible level,” said Edward P. Djere- jian, Senior Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern and South Asian af fairs. “We think direct com munication between the U.S. and Iran would be a step in the right direction in trying to resolve our differences.” Also rejected by the Iranians was a U.N. Security Council resolution mandating an im mediate cease-fire, according to “The Oregonian” (Nov. 2). Washington had said that it would push for a global arms embargo against Iran if it wasn’t accepted. Iran’s Parlia ment speaker accused the U.N. of “cheating” Iran in the world body’s efforts to end the seven year-old Persian Gulf war. The lighter, yet still serious, side of the war has been the dispatched dolphins to the Per sian Gulf to provide an under water surveillance and detection capability. These are supposedly to be used to detect underwater Iranian mines according to “The Oregonian” (Oct. 24). To help alleviate the tension in the Persian Gulf, the United States will need to open up talks between the U.S. and Iran, who will not talk until the U.S. abides by the contract for arms that was in affect before the war between Iran and Iraq.

Steven Blakley 1104 Molalla Ave. Oregon City DMD ASG Announcements The College President’s Coun cil has acted or is acting on many of the student suggestions brought before the group by the Associated Student Government. The doors to the Skylight Room are now being unlocked for student convenience. Handicapped accessibility behind Randall Hall will be im proved and the pull weight on Pauling Center doors will be ad justed so they will be easier to open. Power doors at the last estimate were approximately $20,000 or more. Currently no funds exist to install power doors to Pauling Center. The Council is investigating ventilation for the Skylight Room in the Community Center. It would cost $300 per clock to install clocks in the Fireside Lounge and the Skylight Room. They are still investigating a clock for the Fireside Lounge. President’s Council has yet to act on a student suggestion that a phone message machine be in stalled to announce class cancellations due to absence. Current policy makes the instruc tor responsible for notifying students if class will be cancelled due to their absence. ASG has adopted goals pur sued on behalf of the students this year. 1. To reduce the net cost students pay for text books. 2. Getting students more in volved in the decision making process at every level of the col lege. 3. Increasing financial aid for students. 4. Improving communication between the faculty andthrough faculty involvement in student ac tivities. I CONFIDENTIAL ( AFFORDABLE ' BIRTH CONTROL from the coring professionals...
