Cadet program extended
by Staci Smith
Staff Writer
The college’s Public
Safety Division of has recently
enlisted the help of one more Public
Safety officer to add to the list of
six, and eight new cadets to patrol
the campus in the hopes of keeping
all students and faculty safe.
The cadet program,
which is currently in its fourth
year, was designed to be “the eyes
and the ears of the campus,” said
Public Safety Director Jim
Wiseman.
Toqualify for the position
of Public Safety cadet, the student
must be a criminal justice major
with a 3.0 grade point average or
better.
“We have many more
applicants than positions. Our
natural preference lies with a
second-year student,” Wiseman
said.
At the beginning of each
year, the criminal justice
instructors announce to all of their
classes about the possibility ofcadet
position openings. The jobs offer
around $6 an hour and
approximately 16 hours a week.
“We have a lot of ways to
not armed and can not issue
citations, unlike the Public Safety
officers, who are armed and capable
of issuing citations.
“The focus of the cadets
is on potential personal safety
issues,” Wiseman explained.
The cadets work an
average of four nights a week from
6:30p.m. to 10:30p.m.,andalways
"The focus of the cadets is on potential
personal safety issues."

get students acclimated to the real
world and the cadet program is
one of those ways that also provides
a valuable campus service,”
Wiseman said.
Although the cadets are
given the use of a vehicle, they are
more than one cadet is working at
a time.
“There are really good
young people this year, it’s one of
our best groups ever,” Wiseman
concluded.
Sales tax initiative reviewed
by David Smith and Jesse Sowa
Contributing Writers
Clackamas Community
College could have a $5 million
problem by 1997 if Measure 1
doesn’tpass in the Nov. 2 election.
That was the message
from College President John
Keyser last week at a series of
brown bag lunch discussions in
the Gregory Forum regarding the
controversial sales tax ballot
measure. Keyser’s remarks
followed a presentation by Oregon
Legislator Ron Adams, who spoke
on the different aspects of the
measure, and about the current
budget problems which result from
the effects of 1990s Ballot Measure
5.
In his presentation,
Adams explained that Measure 1
was designed to abolish all property
taxesby creating afivepercentsales
tax for Oregon residents and
visitors. Revenue from the tax
would be used solely for schools -
- kindergarten through community
college. The tax would apply to all
goods sold in Oregon, but it would
not tax groceries or services. For
example, food consumed in the
home would not be taxed, wheres
as food served in a restaurant would
be. Hospital services would also
be exempt from the tax.
I
In explaining the budget
shortages facing the college,
President Keyser said he is “not
too excited about some of the
problems that are coming our
way.” He explained that there
have been enrollment increases,
and that several hundred students
were unable to get the classes they
needed this term. The college
can’t totally serve the students’
needs without additional revenue,
and “cuts of over $1 million won’t
help,” he said.
Keyser pointed out that
because of Measure 5, the property
tax-cutting measure passed by
Oregonians in 1990,50 percent of
funds for the college now come
from the state, instead of 27 percent
before the passage of the measure.
Without the additional revenue
generated by the proposed sales
tax, the college budget could incur
the $5 million shortage by 1997.
