most of the money has been raised.
“We’re at $1.3 million; $200,000 to
go.”
The Niemeyer Center will be a
vast upgrade for the department. It
will feature a music production lab,
audio/video editing room, theatre,
rehearsal/recital rooms, extensive
print and recorded music libraries
and student practice rooms. The
theater and speech departments will
begin their move the beginning of

notable aspects of the Niemeyer
Center, however, is that all of the
rehearsal spaces will be connected

Rainbow Club scares
up funds, awareness
I Ben Maras
I News Editor
The CCC Rainbow Club, the
gay/straight aliance club, will be
putting on a haunted “house” this
Saturday for Clackamas students
and the general public.
The event, called “Corridor of
the Dead,” has been planned since
the beginning of the year, when the
Rainbow Club’s budget began to
run dangerously low. Besides scar
ing the beejeesus out of students,
the “Corridor of the Dead” is jug
gling the tasks of being a canned
food drive, as well as a fundraiser
for die Rainbow club.
“They had $100 in the budget,
and we decided we needed more
money, so we’re at least hoping to
break even,” said Darci Tuggle-
Hepler, who has been one of the
head organizers of the event since
the beginning.
What should one expect while
entering the terrifying “Corridor?”
“Lots of candy, some zombies
here and there, a few themed stages
around the gym ... and a couple
surprises,” says Tuggle-Hepler.
While candy and zombies may
be good in themselves, the event
also has a very serious goal in
mind, one which the club does not
take lightly, despite the light-heart
ed nature of the scare-fest.
“We’d like to raise money to
raise awareness and educate those
around us about our cause, and
spread tolerance,” said Tuggle-
Hepler.
The thrills and chills will be
cheap, with only $5 admission ($3
if in costume), and $1 off admis
sion with a can of food. The event
will be running from 7 to 10 p.m.
on Saturday, Oct. 30, and will give
students an excuse to stretch out the
Halloween festivities to more than
just All Hallow’s Eve, Come if you
dare!
