Page 10, Portland Observer, March 6, 1906 M inority students visit P.S.U. by Robert l o t hum Over 200 minority high school slu- ilcnis from around Oregon visited Portland State University last week The third annual "on campus field trip " enabled the students *o get a head start on education and career planning, and to meet each otner and have some fun. "W e invite sophomores, juniors and seniors from all over the state,” said PSU affirmative action admis sion counselor M aria Alanis. His panic, Black, American Indian and Asian students came from Portland, Salem, W ixxlburn and small com munities like Gervais, said Alanis, who is responsible for minorily stu dent outreach, The visiting high schoolers listened to deans outline the various PSU departmental programs, took a tour of the cmapus and were entertained by a jazz band after lunch. Elaine A. Ejigelstad, an American Indian and attorney who graduated from PSU, gave a morale building talk on how to make it in the high power urban edu cation environment. The PSU affirmative action office has taken the lead among state institu tions of higher education in offering the visitations, said Alanis. PSU offers classes, degree pro grams, and foreign study opportuni ties of interest to minority students. In addition, advising, financial plan ning and aid, tutoring and other sup port is available to help them stay in school once they enter, she said. One of the visitors was a young Hispanic woman from a low-income family in Gervais who plans to study business administrtion and become an accountant. "She wants to be somebody some day,” said Alanis. "She wants to prove to everyone else, especially her parents, that she can do it; that is, succeed in higher education " Major Moms, director ol affirmative action at PSU, said most minority stu dents come from family backgrounds with no higher education cxpcnencc, and where college is not a viable option. They don’t get the preparation or atten tion they need, he said, and are often channeled for failure by an insensitive educational system. Minority students are "holding steady" at PSU, he said, but their fu ture is clouded by more stringent entry requirements and looming budget cuts, families below the poverty level will be hit hard by the changes, which he sees as a trend toward “ creating an elitist educational system," he said OWN A HOME FOR LESS THAN $25,000! ★ THAT’S RIGHT!!! - HUD is offering several homes listed below for less than ‘20,000!!! . INTERESTED? - Call any real estate agent and say, “I’m ★ interested in owning a HUD home.” They’ll provide you with the information, show you homes, complete the paperwork, and best of all, HUD PAYS the agent’s commission, if there’s a sale. ★ TOO EXPENSIVE? - If our low, low asking price is more than your budget will allow, make us an offer!!

" M y heart is racing and I ’m very scared," said Green, who will be in charge o f the clinic's operation Dr. Ben Curtis had just given her a shot o f Novacaine and was preparing to fill a cavity. Curtis, president o f the Oregon Dental Association, did the groundwork to get the clinic open. He organized a pool o f 35 dentists who will volunteer at the clinic, which was designed to meet the dental care needs o f the homeless poor. Dr. Hank Van Hassel, Dean o f the School o f Dentistry, University of Oregon Health Science University, said that dental students will also be helping at the clinic. About $16,(XX) worth o f equipment for a complete dental office was do nated by Adec, Inc., of Newberg. " I f this is a grand opening, it's also a grand expeience for us,” said Ken Austin, president of Ailek Curtis said other clinics for low income people in Portland were "w ay over demand." and dental care for the homeless was being neglected. Michael Stoops, director of Baloney Joe's, said that some clinics have long waiting lists and require a phone number and small donation which makes it hard for the homeless to get their teeth taken care of. Stoops said people are coming into Baloney Joe’s in severe pain with toothaches. Others have lost their dentures. "They're neglecting their dental care because they can't afford it." he said With the new dental clinic, he said, “ W e 'll.b e able to monitor medical and dental health a heck of a lot-bet ter " Baloney Joe's also operates a medical clinic. The dental clinic will open Monday, Wednesday and Enday afternoons at Bakwiey Joe's, 313 E Burnside St. '5S.75# *7145 KOth Are 8 W . Aloha 2 Bdrma 2 Baths 1018 Sq Ft *14740 Darla Rd.
