Don’t drink and drive
DIANA SCRIVNER
Editor-in-Chief
Due to the continuing health
problems related to the Dye Learn
ing Center, lack of staff and staff
relocation, the hours at the library
have changed.
New library hours will be in ef
fect until the end of the term: 10
a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through
Thursday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday,
and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday,
“We have two library staff, one
full-time and one part-time, that
can’t be in the library at all, and we
can not bring in anyone new this
quickly,” said Cindy Andrews, di
rector of learning services.-“We
also want to limit people to four
hour shifts as that seems to be all
they can really handle.”
Two weeks ago, many employ
ees of the Dye Learning Center re
ported illnesses that seemed to be
related to the air quality in the
building. Clayton Environmental
group performed a number of tests
that ended early last week; how
ever, according to Associate Dean
of Plant Services Carol Patterson,
these did not identify what was
making many sick. A second
phase of testing will begin tomor
row. This second phase includes
sampling particles in the air and
taking petri dish samples. The air
samplings results will take three
days and the petri dish results will
take 10-14 days.
Andrews encourages students
and staif to use the library’s elec
tronic resources available online
at the Clackamas home page.
These are available to albstudents
from any computer that has access
to the World Wide Web. Refer
ence librarian Doris Munson is
available to assist students with
questions on how to access this
in Room 143 of Streeter Hall from 8
a.m. to 10 a.m., Monday through
Thursday.
In Streeter Hall, there are also a
number of video carrels set up for
students to watch class videos in
the evening. These are available
Monday through Thursday until
9 p.m.
Alternative study areas are
available as well in the lobbies of
McLoughlin Hall, Randall Hall,
Streeter Hall and the Bill Brod Com
munity Center.
“We’re just doing the best we
can with what we have,” said
Andrews. “We’re just in a waiting
period right now.”

An alcohol awareness event happens today at 11:45 at the track. It includes a free barbecue, free prizes from radio station 94.7 NRK
and a surprise event. Above, students Jeremy Zuercher and Jenny Clow observe a car outside the Community Center Tuesday. This
sporty yellow Mustang was driven into a tree by a 20-year-old after he had been drinking. Police estimated that the car was going
approximately 100 mph. Neither the driver or driver-side passenger was wearing a seat belt and both died in the accident. Only the
passenger in the back seat - that was wearing a seat belt - survived; she had a year of recovery ahead of her. This car is used as a
warning to students as to what happens when people drink and drive.

increasing the level of activities at
the college as well as starting a new
leadership class that will be re
quired for all students involved in
Student Government.
“The leadership class is going to
be a practical class where students
can get to know key people here at
the college and they can also build
their team skills,” said Brown.
“Based on the number of hours
they work, students will receive free

Brown also would like to see stu
dents getting more involved with the
campus by attending committees
and express their opinions and
thoughts.
“I want students to know how
important it is to be part of the deci
sion,” said Brown.
While continuing working with
student outreach, Caudle will be as

mas’ new student leaders.
Caudle is a former ASG president

Come meet
the new
president
Next Wednesday, from 2 to 3:30
p.m., ASG invites you to meet our
new college president, Dr. Earl “Joe”
Johnson.
This event, hosted by the Asso
ciated Student Government (ASG)
and other student campus groups,
will be held outside of the Commu
nity Center. There will be music, re
freshments and activities to bring stu
dents out to meet the president.
“This will be the students’ time with
Joe,” said ASG president Bryan
Fuentez.
The event will have an Olympic
theme with Olympic relay type activi
ties and include a passing of the torch
ceremony between current President
John Keyser and Johnson.
‘We’re trying to come up with some
real fun things so that Joe can interact
with the students,” said Fuentez. “This
is a student driven event; I hope that it
will bring a lot of people.”
