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

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.

The construction on the new building started this summer, and
the construction is expected to continuys through the year
with the building opening scheduled for Fall 1991.
weather conditions will not effect
the progress on the building
itstelf, but could delay construc­
tion of the sidewalks, as concrete
cannot be poured when it is rain­
ing.
Elliot-Jochimsen Construc-
tion Company has been hired to
build the parking lot that went
in this past summer, the com­
puter technology building and
the corresponding sidewalks.
The other construction has yet
to be bid on.
