2 The Clackamas Print Wednesday, November 20,1996 Honor students inducted Cindy Hines Kurfman Copy Editor Phi Theta Kappa inducted 52 new members into the community college honor society last Thursday. Scholarship, leadership, fellow ship and service are the characteris tics inductees have shown at the col lege and in the community. In order to meet the scholarship requirement, the members had to complete 12 cred its hours and to maintain a 3.50 GPA. College President John Keyser encouraged the new members to “use [their] talents and energies to make a better country and a better world.” Keyser was the keynote speaker at the induction. He spoke on the Phi Theta Kappa theme for the year, “The Arts: The Landscape of Our Times.” “[Art] is one of those windows through which we analyze, evaluate civilization,” he said. “I think the arts are an expression of higher ground, higher consciousness.” He believes Phi Theta Kappa’s emphasis on the arts is important be cause “the arts just don’t happen.... It’s too easy to lose the arts.” Keyser sees a need to subsidize the arts. As part of this arts theme, Chap ter Secretary Laney Fouse sang a love song, dedicated to her daughter Kelly, to the crowd. After the song, Fouse, Chapter President Meriwether Mersereau, Vice President Tanya Leikam and Advisor Dave Arter explained the symbols and duties of Phi Theta Kappa. 0 F Enjoy ¿free concert and le® lure this morning at 10 in the Gri Badeau,Jeffrey Baldwin, Jenny M.

For me, this means the end of my very first term as a college student If you had asked me one and a half months ago, I would have sworn that it would have been my last The first weeks of my college experience were less than pleasing. I felt isolated and alone, with abso lutely no friends. Having graduated from a fairly small high school, I was used to knowing everything about everybody. I was also used to being around my closest friends at all times. I never thought that col lege would be a place where I would alone, separate, strange or even anti-social; Welcome to college. The first two weeks, I felt out of place, out of touch, out of everything. I went home and told my mom that I would not be coming back. She told me to just stick in there. I talked to friends of mine that went off to their big universities. Some of them were feeling the same things that I was, but most were having the time of their life. I kept wondering what was wrong with me, what was I doing wrong? However, things got better. I count myself fortunate that I started out on the newspaper staff, for with out it, I would still feel alone. I have a guaranteed support group of people that are here to listen to my frustrations and give me advice about certain professors. Without this group of sensitive, talented, wonderful people, I seriously doubt that I would have made it past that first month. I wish that every incoming freshman had the opportunity to have a guaranteed group of friends. Those that don’t might get lost in this huge campus where it’s easy to get lost inside yourself. To those that are still feeling that disorientation, this is my ad vice: get involved with something that you love to do. There are end less clubs on campus to get involved in.
