Redesign team asks public input

As construction of the new
buildings oh campus nears its con
clusion later this year, some of the
older buildings on Campus will
begin the process of remodeling
to make more room for activities
and programs.
•
_
“Our programs on campus
have grown,” said Interim Dean of
Campus Services Bill Leach,
regarding the way programs have
moved into the new DeJardin and
Rook Halls. “[Now] we are
expanding programs that need to
be expanded in the [existing]
buildings.”
The buildings scheduled to be
remodeled are Randall and
McLoughlin Halls and the
Community Center. All remodel
plans are just proposals, however;
no permanent decisions have been
made.
With theater productions and
classes moving to the currently
under-construction Communication
Arts Center, the McLoughlin
Theatre would be used as a lecture
hall. The bookstore would take
advantage of the space previously
used for backstage and theatre
offices by moving their storage
into those rooms and using their
current storage -space to expand
their sales floor.
In Randall Hall, construction
would create more room for the
programs it currently holds. For
example, the dance program
would take over the third-floor
spaces currently occupied by the
music program.
“We are [also] expanding the
weight room by a lot,” said Leach.
“I would say two or maybe three
times the size that it is now.”
Renovation of the Community
Center is the most anticipated by
faculty.
“It’s the most extensive project
and the one that many of us like
the most,” said Leach. “We are
going to convert the Community
Center info a real student union.”
The
formerly
bustling
Community Center became some
what vacant when registration
moved to the new Rook Hall.
After remodeling, the fireside
room would be used to give stu
dents a meeting place, and the cen
ter of the Community Center
would house a commons, area.
ASG will be relocated to new
offices in the current Skylight
Dining room.
All plans for these buildings
remain “proposed” because the
planning team would like input
from the students and staff'that
use the campus daily. Blueprints
displayed in Rook, McLoughlin
and Randall Halls, as well -as the
Dye Learning, Center and the
Community Center, will give
Clackamas students and staff a
chance to view the plans and give
any input as to what changes they
would like to see.

“We will compile all of that
[information] and make any
adjustments as needed on the
plans,” said Leach.
The Community Center will be
the first to begin construction, in
mid-June, and is slated to be fin
ished by Sept. 1. Construction on
McLoughlin and Randall Halls is
hoped to begin Nov. 1 and will be
continued throughout the winter
with no set date of completion as
of yet.
Although few students are
aware of the remodel plans, many
staff members are looking for
ward to results.
“Most that I’ve talked to are
very excited about this,” said
Leach.

Kucinich added.
Civiletti also blasted critics,
citing studies indicating the
apparent savings of a PUD,
producing figures indicating
thousands of dollars in savings
in the first few years alone.
Kucinich pointed out that
the savings would directly ben
efit the taxpayers. According
to Kucinich, Enron and PGE
only paid $10 in income tax
the last fiscal year before the
scandal. Taxpayers had to fill
in the gap, he said, and the
majority of the burden fell on
middle-class families.
Coincidentally, it should be
noted that The Print’s commen

publication, The Print had no
