C la s s ifie d c o n tr a c t:
The classified staff union
finished voting on the new
contract with Clackamas
Community Collège last
Wednesday (see previous
coverage, “Classified, con
tract under the microscope,”
The Clackamas Print, Feb. 5,
2QÎ4). The tally was 102 for, ;
eight against.
The Board of Education
ratified the new contract that
same night duringits month
ly convening.
The two parties compro
mised on the classified staff
salary increâses, meeting in
the middle at a 1 percent
increase in salaries for the
first two years with a 2 per
cent increase in the third
year.
President’s Day was
added as a recognized holi
day, subject to holiday pay
for those who worked on
Monday, Feb. 17, while the
campus was open, though
there were no classes for the
students.

Students ride the bus to
and from school and the
bus typically runs every
40-60 minutes depending
on the time of day. Student
pedestrians walk from the
bus stop on campus to the
Highway 213 crosswalk.
They walk in the street
(South Douglas Loop) next
to the curb as there is no
sidewalk and walking in
the grass can be dangerous
as there are ankle breaking
holes in many places. There
are no signs cautioning driv
ers about pedestrian safety
and there is no crosswalk
where the South Douglas
Loop intersects with the
North Douglas Loop. This is
a dangerous safety concern
that staff and the adminis
tration should address.
There is a path that the
school built that is up to 100
feet from the South Douglas
Loop roadway. It is more
of a scenic path than the
desired path to get from
point A to point B.
According to MegaFilter,
a community Weblog, “A
desire path ... can be a path
created as a consequence of
foot or bicycle traffic. The
path usually represents the
shortest or most easily navi
gated route between an ori
gin and destination.” Many
colleges, such as Penn State
have built sidewalks where
students walk on desire
paths.
The school could make
the above noted desire- path
safer by installing side
walks and signs along South
Douglas Loop front the bus
stop to Highway 213. The
cost would be for materials
only if the landscape classes
took on the projects and sup
plied student labor.

2nd term student
. Terry— ;
Bob Cochran, dean of
campus services, agrees
that some pedestrian path
ways on the college proper
ty may not adequately pro
vide the most convenient
paths from point A to point
B. The college will be eval
uating the Highway 2T3th;
area and many other col
lege pedestrian and bicycle
pathways within the capital
campaign study.
