Clackamas should be applying for occupancy with the city of Oregon City by the end of next week, according to Kirk Pearson, director of the CCC Bond Project, which financed the construction of all the new buildings on the Oregon City campus. “There have been no major problems in this phase of the over all construction project. There have been a few extra requirements put on us by the city of Oregon City at the end of work” said Pearson, “but overall, for the size of this par ticular project, everything has been pretty smooth.” The Music department has already had their practice booths moved over to its new space and the rest of Music should be moving over in the very near future, once occupancy has been approved.

Bush,” agreed Moore, as the crowd roared. Moore also noted that the pur pose of the military is to save the lives of the American public, should the country be attacked. Now, however, Moore said, Bush has used the most powerful force in the world to bring profits to his administration and their benefici aries. In addition to getting young voters to vote, Moore touched on how “Fahrenheit 9/11” impacted not only the American publicxand the upcoming election, but the troops as well, many of whom had received bootlegged copies of the movie. But the bootlegging does not upset him. In fact, he supports it. He even went as far as to tell peo ple to steal his new book “Will They Ever Trust Us .Again?” and copy it for all of their friends. “Information should not be owned, it should be shared,” said Moore. “Bum, baby, bum [DVDs]!” As evidenced by the raucous crowd, the rally sparked a fire amongst young non-voters across the state. Moore was successfully able to rebut the all-too-common saying, “I don’t vote because it just won’t make a difference.” Well, guess what, slacker? It will. Moore shows his respect for Eric Blickenstaff and his family. Eric’s brother, Joe, was killed in Iraq last December.
