Photo by Lane Scheideman With the school year underway Associated Student Government (ASG) members are anxious to hear from and ready to meet the students at Clackamas. The ASG officers are; Entertainment Coordinator, Scot Camberon; President, Tony Franklin; Assistant to the President, Renae Austin; Administrative Assistant, Becca Schroeder; and Vice President, Andreas Luehring. Student government prepared for year by Angela Wilson Editor-in-Chief The Associated Student Government (ASG) is geared up for the year to get underway and ready to involve the students in the many campus events planned and issues that may come up over the course of the year. Elections were held in spring term 1990 for the President and Vice President. The executive cabinet members were also se lected at that time. Tony Franklin, ASG Presi dent, got involved in student gov ernment because he felt “there was too much apathy here.” Fran klin is pursuing a degree in busi ness. “I’m looking to get students involved in what’s going on on the campus and help expand their educational experience,” Fran klin said. Vice President Andreas Luehring felt that “the opportu nity was calling to me to get in volved.” Luehring is a foreign student by choice not through an exchange program and is pursu ing a Business degree so he can transfer to a university and study International Business. “I’m happy to be vice presi dent and I’m happy to be at Clackamas,” Luehring said. “I am glad to have a view behind the scenes working with the faculty and for the students.” Assistant to the President Renae Austin is also pursuing a degree in business and sees ASG as a way of getting more out of her educational experience than just classroom experience. “I got involved because I had complaints and I can’t complain about what I don’t like if I’m not involved in a part of the process,” Austin said. Becca Schroeder, Admini stration Assistance, saw how last year’s ASG worked together and wanted to be a part of that atmos phere and “team spirit.” “We are all interested in get ting the students involved, but I want to also make sure that as a group we don’t loose our team spirit,” Schroeder said. Entertainment Coordinator Scot Camberon wants “to make sure that people have a good time while at school.” “I want people to be friends and talk to each other,” Cam beron said. ASG has suggestion boxes in every building and encourages anyone with a suggestion to use them. The members of ASG want everyone to know that, as a staff and as individuals, they are ap proachable and available for the students. Applications for senator positions are available and are due by Oct 4. The applications can be picked up at the Student Activities window in the Commu nity Center. “There are a lot of students at Clackamas and if we all get to gether, it can really make a differ ence,” Franklin said. Campus shows signs of new building Construction continued from page 1. Also planned are a new building to house the Library, a Family Resource Center, a Fo rum Building and the off-cam pus construction of a Wilson ville Center. The remodeling of McLoughlin and Barlow Hall will be the last of the projects, with an expected completion date of September 1992. No new parking is planned for this remodel effort, beyond the 200 spaces already com pleted. However, future con struction of a parking lot be tween the freeway and Douglas Loop is in the planning process. The planned parking would provide easy access to the new buildings. < : Bruce Ferrell of Elliot- Jochimsen Construction Com pany, General Contractor on the computer technology build ing, says the construction is going according to schedule. "We run a little behind and then a little ahead, it all evens out,” says Ferrell. Ferrell also be lieves that the sudden adverse That is, if the person needs to leave campus and cannot be cause they are blocked in, the blocking car will be towed. A citation is given to all cars that are towed. > “For the most part the warning system is working,” Wiseman said. “The warning system is an idea that has seen its time and place at Clackamas,” Wiseman added. “That pleases us. We don’t like to give citations on a regular basis, and we most cer tainly don’t like to tow peoples cars at their expense.” All warnings and citations are computer indexed. After re ceiving a citation a person has 10 days to go to the appeals board to try to nullify the citation. Af ter the 10 days there is no longer an opportunity to have the cita tion reversed. If fines are not paid then the student will not be able to re register for the next term, re ceive their graduation diploma or have their transcripts sent to any other colleges. “There has been an acute parking shortage,” Wiseman said. “Some areas are also com pounded by on-going construc tion and the limitation of time and funds for parking lot main tenance.” Over the summer the park ing was increased 12-15 percent by the expansion of the McLoughlin lot. “There has to be a fairness when it comes to parking,” Wiseman said. “We all should be able to go home and go to sleep and feel we’ve been fair. “I think one of the cures for the parking situation is to have a mandatory instead of voluntary registration of vehicles,” Wise man said. “That way we know who belongs to what vehicle. “Mandatory registration could be set up here, and we are looking into the options for starting it in the future,” Wise man said.
