All certified school staff who renew their certificates after January 1, 1980 must pass a class approved by the State Teacher Standards and Practices Commission on discrimination and its legal ramifications for education, The ESD workshop meets th a t c e r tific a tio n requirement. Forrest Gathercoal w ill teach the class for the ESD Gathercoal is an associate professor of education at Oregon State University and has taught the class for Clackamas ESD several times in the past. According to ESD S u p e rin te n d e n t A nton Bryant, recent changes in the interpretation of the law and in the structure of the Teacher Standards and Practices Commission have made it difficult for many P s y c h o lo g is t-h u m o ris t Murray Banks w ill present a lecture and two-day workshop at Clackamas C om m unity College on Friday and Saturday, April 18-19.

Persons wishing to register for the workshop may do so by m ail through April 11 or by v is itin g the college Student Activities Office teachers to meet the cer- tification requirement * There were very few teacher training institutions offering the course before the new regulation took effect in J a n u a ry ," B ryant said. ‘Teachers who anticipated the requirement and wanted to take the class couldn't because the class simply wasn't being offered.’’ Adding to the problem was the fact that the TSPC changed the expiration date for certificates from June 30 of each year to the ap- plica n t’s birthday. It then became possible that a teacher born in e arly January might not be able to renew his certificate because he hadn’t taken a class that wasn’t even being taught. According to B rya nt, Clackamas ESD, along with others, recognized the potential problem last fall and began offe ring the workshop. Following that lead, the State Department of Education and TSPC have now approved a class outline so the anti-discrimination class can be offered by any ESD across the state. T h is ’n th a t by BARBARA ALLISON The missing link: The Times of London officially banned the use of the title Ms. from its latest style book. According to one of the newspaper’s columnists, “ It is a rtificial, ugly, silly, means nothing and is rotten English It is a faddish middle-class plaything, and far from disguising the m arital status of women, as is claimed, it draws attention to it. It is vanity.” Thy name is woman. Basing the senior citizen: Trailways now offers to persons 65 years of age or older a 13 percent reduction on a ll bus fares. The “ Unflation Fare” has no strings attached and can be used anytime, anywhere. That’s fare enough. Policing the Police: Police Lt. Charles M orris and Detective R.J. Howell of the Pampa, Texas, police department went to the local high school to show a film to students studying govern ment. A senior, Joni Covalt, complained when she found a police car parked in her reserved spot. School policy states that if a student parks in another’s reserved spot, he or she is either paddled or has to spend an hour in detention hall. The officers chose the hour’s detention. They should have towed away their car. Pet Paradise: A m illion- dollar pet shelter has opened in Sparks, Nev. The shelter, financed by the George Whittel Foundation, has 82 kennels, a dog pool and exercise yards. There’s a v is itin g room where prospective pet owners can meet and get acquainted with the dog or cat they might adopt, a classroom where local school teachers can bring pupils to learn “ humane attitudes” toward animals, and a seven-foot bulletproof wall to protect the resident animals. A sign of the times’’ The zoos are for petting: Foreign women living in Tokyo have p u b licly threatened physical violence to the next Japanese man who "tw e a k s , pinches, strokes or otherwise touches” any of them while tra ve lin g in the c ity ’s overcrowded subway. In a letter published in the Japan Times, the women said, “ If you animals don’t act like gentlem en, we w ill not behave like ladies. Why must your sneaky, loathsome, roaming hands take ad vantage of our vulnerability in the packed trains?” You have to ask?

Cold asphalt may have future Many low volume roads in Oregon and the Pacific Northwest have been built with cold m ix asphalt since 1966. The performance has been promising but the uses have remained relatively limited up to now. The head of the Oregon State U n iv e rs ity T rans p o r t a t io n R e s e a rc h Institute, R. Gary Hicks, sees their use in the future for many secondary and even main roads, however. Part of his forecast is based on observations made last month in Sweden where mainline roads are being resurfaced with a cold mix consisting of asphalt emulsion and graded crush rock. “ We’ve been using layers of 2-8 inches on our log roads, depending on the quality of the road base The Swedish Road Administration is using layers of 1-2 inches on existing state highways,” Hicks observed. Increased experience with open graded asphalt emulsion mixes w ill bring advances in design and construction that w ill further enhance their use, Hicks is convinced. “ There are several ad vantages: lower cost, resistance to cracking, less energy consumption because there are fewer pieces of equipment involved, and safety — reduced fire danger, good skid resistance and faster runoff of highway water through the more porous surface.” The Swedish road experts also say cold m ix design roads are quieter. from April 14 through 18. The workshop is being offered on an optional one-credit basis Banks has lectured in every English-speaking country in the world. His program on “What to Do U n til the P sych iatrist Comes” is the second most frequently given talk in the world, as he has performed it more than 5000 times. BRING YOUR SCISSORS!
