Nares on campus

Cafeteria conflict
on the r +
ere^ the cafeteria in the Community Center
brpakfactIr* j a/u°f c'asses an<f ordered their usual No. 4
rnuM k i°i •aS l ^rowns< e99s and toast, a noticeable change
could be felt in the atmosphere.
After a bit of inquiry, it was discovered that the food
services staff „had been told by their administrative supervisor,
air, to employ more professional behavior, less hilarity
and to keep the noise down."
It seems Lair was hosting a breakfast meeting for a United
ay committee in the adjacent intimate dining room and he
wanted his staff to act in a manner other than their usual
selves.
The cafeteria is one of the few places on campus where a
keyed-up student can go to unwind. A casual atmosphere is
produced by the friendliness of the staff and the informal
surroundings.
Lair did praise his staff, stating that hi thought he had an ;
excellent chef and a good crew and his request to them came :
from unnamed peers "more conservative" than himself. :
If a cafeteria serves decent food, then the people working ■
there shouldn't have to adapt their behavior just to please an •
"outside" special interest group for an hour or two. Even •
though the administration encourages community use of :
facilities, the students should be the primary consideration of i
the college.
Other rooms are available for meetings and fund raisers, i
If administrators are concerned about professional cafeteria ■:
behavior, why don't they have special interest luncheons j
catered in more posh surroundings.

Handicapped
The Bonnie Nelson situation is a good example of poor
planning as far as the accommodation of student needs goes,
All of the buildings in the core area of the campus have
devices built into theWm which can be used by students who
must rely upon wheelchairs to get around.
Why then have no such devices been installed at the
Smuckers complex? Surely nobody believes that the handi­
capped can't be artists. How many students in wheelchairs
have taken a look at that building and left in frustration,
giving up on the idea of taking classes there?
The administration should rectify this situation as soon as
nossible and look into other areas of the college that are
currently unaccessible to handicapped students like Bonnie
c
It has come to my attention that this year Clackamas Communi s
College is being frequented by narcotics agents. I personally fe r
that these individuals are as welcome to share our fine education^
facility as any one of us are.

However, I am also certain a number of the students at tl
school would like to be made aware of the fact mentioned a bo JH
Oregon is fortunate in having marijuana legislation that is ahesffl
of its time in the country, 'tho many of us feel it could be mudH
better than it is now. What we have is a situation where smokiijt
grass is not quite legal; not quite illegal.
Back to the point: there are some nares around the campus. E
aware and have a good time.
