Welcome Welcome, dear reader, to the first issue of THE COUGAR PRINT. This issue is dedicated to both new and old students and we hope it meets with approval. For those students unfamiliar with student publications here at Clackamas Community College, we are stationed in Trailer B. Trailer B is located on 1/100 of an acre which would over look the tennis courts if there weren't other trailers blocking the view. Since there doesn't seem to be much to editorialize about this week we thought we would just toss out a few random bits of information. As all registered students know, a questionnaire was being handed out to see what kinds of activities students would like student government to pro- mote, This includes student preferen- ces to kinds of music for dancing, and kinds of sports preferred for intra- murals. This questionnaire also had a space for listing a student's special interests and a space for asking ques tions of student government. Every student contributes to stu dent government through registration fees. Therefore, students should take any opportunities they get to tell stu dent government how they would like their money to be used. Those stu dents who don't offer any input have no business complaining, at a later date, that student government is not spend ing this money in a manner they approve. There are a number of programs and activities on campus that students can involve themselves in -- not the least of which is student publications, Any students who have worked on a high school publication in any capa- city are welcome to drop by Trailer B to check out the program. Those students who have not worked on a publication before but would like the chance to do so should stop by, too. We can use writers, photographers and people to work on the production end of things. Interested students can check the student handbook (page 19), for more details. Student publications is a student service. The staff of THE COUGAR PRINT hopes to come up with some articles worth reading, as does any newspaper staff. We hope we can per form a useful service to the students and we encourage letters to the editor or suggestions for areas of news cover age students feel would be of value to them. We hope to stir up some healthy controversy this year but we hope we aren't the major cause. In any event, welcome to CCC and don't forget to read the COUGAR PRINT every week. It could start a tradition rivaling wiping one's feet before entering the house. From Mike Ayers, Associated Student Government President, and Charlie Bennett, ASG Vice President: The Oyster & The Eagle When God made the oyster, He guaranteed him economic and social security. He built the oyster a house, a shell to protect him from his enemy. When hungry, the oyster simply opens his shell, and the food rushes in. But when God made the eagle, He said, "The blue sky is the limit. Go build your own house." And the eagle went and built his house on the highest mountain crag, where storms threatened him every day. For food, he flies through miles of rain and snow and wind. The eagle, not the oyster, is the emblem of America! Don't you think we have enough oysters already? It's time to get the eagles off the ground. See us at Student Activities if you'd like to get involved. (Advertisement) ■ CLACKAMAS COMMUNITY COLLEGE PUBLICATIONS STAF! 19600 S.
