is from Maryland. She first visited
the forum on April 10 and had been
invited to post because of her “gift.”
She has a rare endowment, one
from which she seeks no recogni

What she "saw" intrigued users
on the forum. She drew up a sketch
and profile of who she believes is
the abductor of Gaddis and Pond.
The following is an unedited copy
of thè profile:

“We don’t comment on specifics

said Beth Anne Steele, spokesper

The family of Pond gave per

we have forwarded our request to

With the recent news of three
of five new buildings breaking
ground on campus this fall, Dave
Bradley and Wayne Austen, auto
body instructors at Clackamas,
are optimistic about the possi
bility of moving into a new build
ing but are preparing to teach
future classes in the building
they reside in now.
“We’re hoping to be in a new
building, but are not counting on
it,” said Bradley. “Student-wise
we have the potential for growth,
but we need more space.”
Historically, the Saturday resto
ration classes have a long wait
ing list each term. The class is
very popular among students ea

term, five students laid off from
Freightliner and another four dis
placed aluminum workers are
taking the classes to learn new
skills in their field of expertise.
Bradley said this is possibly due
to the poor economic state that
Oregon is in.
Enrollment dropped at the be
ginning of the spring term, which
it usually does, due to people
haying the desire to show off
their cars in the sun, finished or
not. “People like to have fun,”
joked Bradley. But the fall and
winter terms bring large number
of students to campus for this

course.
Currently, the paint class has
31 students enrolled, 13 above
the normal capacity. Some
classes are run simultaneously
to accommodate the influx of
students. “It is common to see
40 students and only two in
structors,” said Bradley.
“We’re busting out at the
seams,” added Austen. The
auto restoration class has Seen
such an increase in its popular
ity they’ve added a class during
the evening—running simulta
neously with the Street Rod III
course—in order to meet the de
mand.
According to Bradley, stu
dents have to move more cars in
and out of the shop for each
class.
Additional classroom space
would create a more successful
learning environrrient for the stu
dents and staff. And any extra
space in the shop would allow
the department to add new
equipment and create a safer en
vironment for everyone.
“People are bumping into each
other with their projects...it’s
just not safe,” said Bradley.
