Tuition hike, comedians
two college mistakes
Student Opinions
The general comments from regarding
the increase in tuition are favorable with
few objections. Perhaps students aren’t
looking at the big picture, which is the
frequency of the tuition increases.
It’s not surprising that the Clackamas
Community College Board of Education
raised tuition costs at Clackamas for the
1989-90 school year.
What most students don’t know is that
this is the eighth tuition increase in 11
years. Furthermore, next year’s full time
tuition expenses, which will be $240 per
term, is more than double than the $110
What do you think was signifigant about Martin
Luther King?

Martin Luther King was one of our
country's great leaders with guts
and charisma. It's hard to find that,
especially the guts.

full time costs per term in 1978-79.
In 1981-82 the college raised tuition
25.9 percent. Full time costs for that year
leaped to $170 per term from $135 per term
the previous year. Hypothetically, if Clacka
mas experienced the same increase per
centage in 1990-91, tuition costs would
escalate to over $300 per term.
Considering the fact that Umpqua’s
$276 (full time) per term is the highest of
any community college in Oregon, it’s not
too apparent that we’ll see an increase that
high in two years; however, it does show a
constant trend to increase tuition at Clacka
mas.
The dream of freedom for all
people.

Nearly everybody who attended any
part of last week’s “comedy extravaganza”
could come to the easy summation of its
success, or more accurately, its failure.
Regardless of whether or not there is
an entertainment coordinator in the Asso
ciated Student Government, Clackamas
students shouldn’t be asked to put up with
this kind of lack of entertainment that the
ASG actually paid money out of their budget
for.
The ASG entertainment group, along
with the ASG officers need to find a better
way of screening new talent before they
invite those performers to entertain on
campus.
According to some, the problem starts
with the students, because of their lack of
attendance at events such as dances and
other functions.
You won’t find agreement here.
The fact is simple; ASG must earn a
reputation for bringing quality entertain
ment to Clackamas. When that happens,
students will show up and watch the per
formers.
Letter to the Editor...
Keep names, numbers out of texts
' You know how you read those stories
about the psycho creep who starts harass
ing the beautiful young coed by telephone?
First there’s heavy breathing at midnight
then he tells them what type of clothes they
were wearing on some particular day and
eventually ends up on their doorstep all set
to commit various acts of violence.
Ever wonder where or how they came
across that phone number or address?
Chances are they wandered over to the
local campus book store and flipped through
the recently bought-back used books. Sounds
stupid, doesn’t it? But it works.
While searching for the “best” used
books I discovered all too often that both
males and females had left their full names,
addresses, and phone numbers in the front

covers of used textbooks. Some had even
included a social security number.
I believe this practice needs to be re
considered. Neither the bookstore nor the
next owner should be responsible for the
elimination of this information. It’s up to
the individual seller.
If you as a student wouldn’t hand a
psycho-killer your driver’s license and phone
number, why leave it in a book that you’re
preparing to part with?
Consider which is easier to replace: a
lost textbook worth 30 or 40 bucks or your
personal identity in the hands of someone
like Norman Bates.
