air problem
DIANA SCRIVNER
Editor-in-Chief
After numerous tests performed
on the quality of air in the Dye Learn
ing Center last week, it has not been
determined what is making staff
members sick.
Concerned staff members and
administrators met yesterday only
to find that the amount of Co2 in
the air, temperature, relative humid
ity, carbon dioxide, carbon monox
ide and particles in the air, measured
by Clayton Environmental, meet
OSHEA standards.
“The good news is that the build
ing is clean and the bad news is that
the building is clean. We don’t know
what is causing the problem,” said
Carol Patterson, associate dean,
:ampus services. “It’s bad news be-
:ause it didn’t help us at all in deter-
nining the problem.
Patterson did say that mold is not
he problem."
“I spent an hour and a half in the
wilding and I did not have my regu
ar mold reactions,” she said. “I am
.ery confident mold is not our is-
ue.”

Stefan Myers was elected ASG
resident for the 2001/2002 school
ear with a total of 49 votes,
vonne Ingram was elected vice
resident with 47 votes.
Approximately 56 people partici-
ated in the elections this year. Bob
losserman, Clackamas student,
iceived four votes for President
nd Jeremy Ball, student and ath-
te, received 4 votes for Vice Presi-
ent.
“Students have been writing in
ob Bosserman for the last few
ears. Nobody really knows who
e is except that he’s a student here
at Clackamas,” said Glorianne
Muggli, ASG vice president.
Compared to last year’s elec
tions outcome, the number of stu
dents voting as well as students
running for office has dropped.
“Considering the lack of compe
tition, the election turnout was
pretty good,” said Muggli. “There
was really not a whole lot of chal
lenge this year. I heard that at Mt.
Hood Community College, they
were giving out free TCBY yogurt
in order to get people to vote.”
Myers and Ingram will start their
duties Fall term.________________

theyarenow 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday
through Thursday, 8 am. to 5 pm. Fri
day, and 10am.to4p.m. on Saturday.
Clayton Environmental group ran
tests 24 hours a day for four days to
see if there was any relationship be
tween time and possible changes in
the environment.

sampling and petri dish samples will
be taken throughout the building
above the ceiling, in ductwork and at
work level. The air sample results take
three days and the petri dish test re
