“I plan on doing some work in my shop,
a little dirt-bike riding. Probably, if I get
my books early, I’d like to study up for
next term. Probably take a couple days
and go visit some of my family.”
“This spring break I’m going to possi
bly take a road trip to Sisters, Oregon,
and work. I’m going with my two
friends.”
“I’m going to Death Valley on the
Death Valley trip. It’s actually a science
class through the school with John
Snively. It’s a history of southwestern
deserts in California. It’s an eight-day
trip.”
“I’d probably go back and visit some
family, but it all boils down to having
enough time and cash.”
-Keith Jones, student
“I don’t know, probably nothing. I
don’t have any distinctive plans yet.”
“I’d probably want to go to Florida;
It’s supposed to be a raging party. I ak
most went there one year.”
“Probably to go down to Mexico on the
beaches, where my sister’s going.”
“I suppose I’ll take a camping trip with
my friends to Crane Prairie.”
“Probably the place I’m going this
Thanksgiving. We’re going to the Baha
mas on a cruise. I’d want to go with my
family.”
“Scuba diving in the Bahamas with the
guy I’ve been dating.”
-Robert Keeler, anthropology instructor
“If the weather’s decent, Pjl probably
go down to the coast for a day or two.
My wife is busy doing a project up in
Puyallup, WA, so my son and I may go
up there for a couple of days.”
“Yes, Barbados would be good. It’s a
nice time of year there.”

“I’m going to Boston with my friend.
I’ve had that plan since January. We’re
just going, we don’t know anyone. I think
she has family members there.1® * H

ASG election process gets underway
Erica Strowbridge, Associated Student Government vice
president, announced that she will be holding a meeting at
the end of March for people interested in filling the posi
tions of ASG president and vice president.
Elections for the two positions are to be held in April.
Candidates, in order to be considered for the election, need
to have a petition signed by 100 current Clackamas students.
Strowbridge, also in charge of the elections committee,
will explain at the meeting the requirements to be a candi
date and the duties of the two positions. She will explain
in detail the election process.
“As a candidate you don’t have to spend any of your own
money. Costs of the election are covered by the ASG,” she said.
The positions of president and vice president of the ASG
will be for the 1998-1999 school year. Strowbridge said
two students are already interested in the president’s posi
tion and one is interested in the vice president’s.
For students interested in becoming a candidate, the
meeting will be held March 30, the first day of spring term,
in room 126 of the Community Center.
Native garden: also a way to explore, learn

cooperative work experience.
Misley stated, because the garden is at low elevation, that
if students are taking a biology class where they will be go
ing on field trips to view plants, the garden can also be a
useful way to preview plants in a "floristic setting."
Native Plant Identification and Uses, a new Biology class
being taught by Misley, is using the native garden area as a
way to explore Native American uses of plants. Students
will be able to learn how Native Americans lived with and
used native plants to survive.
Misley hopes that one day the Pauling Center native gar
den will rank up among other local and regional native gar
den areas.
Currently, other local areas include the Barry Botanical Gar
dens (near Lewis and Clark) and the Leech Botanical Gardens.
Both specialize in showcasing native plants and "specimen" plants
— those that are difficult to cultive and grow.
In the future, the garden will be undergoing some soil ad
ditions and amendments, featuring new plants, to showcase
more plants and to work closer with other groups that have
similar interests.
"We're exploring a collaboration with the Horticulture de
partment. As they expand and grow and include an interest
in native plants we want to help them showcase plants and
to use this [garden] as source material," said Misley.
