tunity employer and all qualified

color, religious belief, sex, national
origin, age or any other non-law

Johnson
The reason for the two open­
ings in publicsafety is that officers

Elliott are leaving. Robinson, a
graduate of Clackamas Commu­

position with the Milwaukie Po­

not officially resigned as of yet,
will become a member of the Tigard

a graduate of the College.
“It’s a common occurrence,”
said Johnson about the departure
of both Elliott and Robinson.

and are now ready to move on.”

by Briane C. Dotson
News Editor
The Friends of Clackamas
Community College plan to con­
tact over32,500voters in hopes of
getting them to pass a $9.5 million
bond levy in March according to
Associated Student Government
Pesident Faith Taylor.
The Friends of Clackamas
Community College hope to use
student volunteers to help in the
bid to get the bond levy passed.
The drive to inform voters will
take place on a Saturday accord-
ing to Taylor.
“We (the students) have to get
involved because the bond levy is
for us,” said Taylor.
Of the 62,000 registered vot­
ers in the district, it is hoped by
the Friends of Clackamas Com­
munity College that they will be
able to reach half the voters.
“I want to see everyone who
isn’t registered get registered and
vote,” said Taylor.
Students who are not regis­
tered to vote can register through
Student Activities office, located
in the Community Center.
Forum on smoking
considered by ASG
by Christopher L. Curran
Editor
Smoking has become a very
heated and argumentative topic
this year at Clackamas Commu­
nity College.
In the President’s Council
Meeting of Dec. 6, the council
decided to ban the activity in the
Lobby of Randall Hall right in
front of the gym. In that same
meeting the council planned a 30
day period, to be held during the
month of April, where smoking
would be banned all across cam­
pus.
Currently talk has arisen
between College President John
Keyser and Associated Student
Government President Faith
Taylor on the subject of a smok­
ing forum where those in favor of
smoking and those against smok­
ing could air their opinions on
the subject. At this time Taylor
and four other members of the
Clackamas Associated Student
Government are investigating the
possibility of such a project.
“I have to take the idea to the
ASG meeting Thursday and it (a
smoking forum) has to be ap­
proved,” said ASG President Tay­
lor. “It is a chance for both sides to
speak their views.”
The committee held a meet­
ing Tuesday morning and decided
on several items to present at
Thursday’s meeting for approval.
If the forum is approved, then
faculty, students and administra­
tion would be invited to speak their
views on the topic of smoking. The
meeting would be tentatively sched­
uled for the middle of February.
“We really want people who
are for it (smoking), as well as
people who are against it,” said
Taylor. “There would be a debate
for both sides and then it would go
to the floor for discussion. Every­
body will have a chance to be heard.”
