One last time
It's time for that old sad song again, it's that all-
time favorite hit of the student body called "I Don't
Know What's Happening at the College and I Could
Really Care Less Rag."
Sometimes we get really tired of hearing that parti
cular tune and everytime we hear it we answer back
with the "You Owe it to Yourself to Get Involved
Boogie."
One song is
ference being that we occasionally come up with some
new lyrics. This week's version goes something like
this:
There were two forums held last Thursday, both of
which were very informative and enlightening. They
were forums on legislative awareness and Title IX.
Both forum topics were of real importance to all
Clackamas Community College students.
The legislative awareness’ forum panel discussed
effective ways for the average person to lobby and make
his or her voice heard by legislators. The forum also
brought to light proposed legislation with a direct
impact on the students here.
The Title IX forum was important because informa
tion gathered at that forum will be used in the college's
Title IX self-study.
Title IX deals with sex discrimination and that sub
ject is no longer strictly womans territory (see the story
on the business curriculum on page 3).
Total student participation for each forum could
be counted on one hand's worth of fingers.
At any rate, we have decided that it's time for us to
start singing a new song because we don't feel it's
worthwhile for us to waste editorial space on some
thing that won't ever change: student body apathy.
The name of the tune is "What You Don't Know Can
Hurt You and We Hope You Get Burned."

Racial slur
To the Editor:
Just a short comment on your editorial titled "Indian
Don't you think the phrase itself is a bit inappropR
sidering the history of broken treaties and termination o ,
which includes the taking back of Indian land that this cou
generously "gave" us many years ago (a tremendously s |
tion compared to the total amount stolen)?
J
"Indian Giver" is a phrase with racial overtones that |
easily be replaced with something more applicable.
