The bottom line, according to Ike and Tailfeathers and other court representatives, is that punishment is the parents' responsibility. "Wedon't want to be disciplinarians." Punish ment should be done at home. Tailfeathers added, "The law has had to assume the responsibility of discipline for parents. Now, the par ents are mad that the court" is pun ishing their children. Dee elaborated, stating, "Parents say they could go to jail if they punished their children. That's a copouL" Court representa tives agree. There has been no con viction of child abuse within the last IS or 20 years when traditional dis cipline has been carried out with good "You can tell the difference be tween physical abuse and discipline," said Tailfeathers. "Parents are refusing to be re sponsible for their children. Instead of thechildren being in court, itshould be the parents." Ike said. "People honestly don't know how to deal with their children."

The accrediting body has not specified the sanctions it will im pose if COCC fails to bring the col lege library facilities up to the specified standards. However, ac tion that the association could take includes enrollment or program re strictions, which would affect the number of students COCC could serve. The present library also has no room to house new materials needed for the Central Oregon Uni versity Center program, which gives area residents the opportunity to study for bachelor's and master's degrees on the COCC campus.
