Students forget their debts Parking tickets remain unpaid Parking on the Clackamas Community College campus is a controversial subject. Everyone has divided feelings on this situ ation. Either there are not enough parking spaces, feel many students, or the problem is solved by parking further from the build ings than the first ten rows. According to Stan Johnson chief of cam pus security there are plenty of parking spaces. With a total of 1700 registered cars, only 60 per cent of which are here at any given time, 1650 parking spaces are more than adequate. "We have enough room -- what we have is a distribution problem," said Johnson. "Everyone wants to park in front of the Community Center." People who have received parking tickets are first to express concern with the prob lem. "I think a warning should be given in stead of an immediate fine," said an un identified violator. "Some parking areas are misleading and have no posted restrictions." There is a $3 maximum fine for parking violations. Money received goes into the Student Emergency Loan Fund. Those who do not pay their fines will not get their grades or be allowed to register until they do. This is the proposed resolution but there CCC cafeteria reflects increase in coffee prices If you are a coffee drinker you may have noticed the cafeteria has raised the price of coffee to 20 cents per small cup and 35 cents per large cup. This 5 cent increase is due to the rising price of coffee. "Two years ago I paid half the price per pound of coffee that I pay now," said Norm Grambusch, Clackamas Community College manager of food services. Sixty to 70 pounds of coffee per week are used in the cafeteria. If the price is raised from the current price of $2.90 per pound, the cafeteria will inevitably have to raise the price again. Grambusch said many people have sub stituted tea or cocoa for coffee and as a result the price of cocoa may rise. "At one time wholesalers could bid or contract food prices for one whole year," said Grambusch. "Now guarantees last no longer than 30 days." Grambusch said many stores may begin boycotting if they have not already and many people will have to cut down drinking coffee or use tea as a substitute. Funds allocated for barriers Tentative corrections of architectural bar riers on the Clackamas Community College campus were discussed last Tuesday at a meeting between students and administra - tive personnel. A $140,000 budget for corrections was proposed by the administration at the meet- ing which drew only one handicapped stu dent. Several priority changes and additions were suggested by the participants. It was also mentioned that $3 tickets have been issued by CCC campus security to students parking in spots recently desig nated for handicapped use.
