A demand lhat the board of trustees repc.11 the Outdoor ~aciUties Fee and return money collected by the fee to the students of NIC was issued at an emergency meeuns of the Associated Students of North Idaho College on April 19 The emergcn.:~ meeting was called after Oc;in of Administration Rolland Jurgen., requc-stcd a SIO inc:rcnsc in s1udent iees to pay for campu, remodeling pro;c.:t,, su.:h ih the Ri~cr /\, enue parl..mg for pa, mg proJecl. The Outdoor Fa.:11iti~ Fee wa\ pro~ed and a.:,cpted b) the board of tru,tec-. an \pril. 1982 It proposed thar ,tudent fee, be us,:d for on-.:ampu\ proJc.:t~ such as parking lot e:1.pansion and othe• remodeling projects. ASl\ IC feels that the fee is inappropriate under Idaho law and that it is the state's responsibility to maintain sum buildings. After meeung "ith Norm Gissel, attorney for NIC students, senators Vicki Cade and Pam Marcheski drafted a letter to lhe board of trustees. lo addition 10 demanding lhe repeal of the Outdoor Facilities Fee, the leuer asks Lhai all money collected to date under the fee be returned to students in a way to be later determined.
In the Apliil 2.S meeting. President of Voanional Students Sheri Chnsl' urged more interaction between ASNIC 3nd the Voc3tion31 Student Cou ncil. Only 10 percent of NIC students arc in 1he vocational program. "hile the rem3ining 90 percent are academic students. Vocauonal ~llldcnts feel they need more represent3tion, Chase said. Member~ of the VocatiOn31 Student Council. "hich is responsible ior managing the vocational budget. asked for ,alarics for their president. viccprc~idcnt and secrctary-trcruurer. The !>alaries would come from 1ht ,,ocationnl budget. On the issue of salaries. Cade was opposed to seuing a prC'Cedcnt for clubs on campus. but Senator Lowell Eklof stated that Vocational Student Council is not a club. Eklof, who represents vocational students in the ASNIC Senate, argued that Vocational Student Council and ASNIC Senate make up student government at NIC. A motion was then passed to allow ne.~1 year's Vocational Student Cou ncil to give salaries of S100 each to president and vice-president and S50 for secretary / treasurer.

Students go commercial by Sharo n Sheldon
The commercial side or the Sentinel recently got a racclift when 30 advertising students and 15 salespeople s1aned wor king in conjuction "' iLh I he newspaper sta rr. According 10 Don Friis, ad~enising and sales ins1ruc1or, the goal or each cla.ss is to have some pracucal experience as well as forma l classroom learning. "Each issue Lhar students sell or design the ads. they get a bcuer idea of how the basic fundcmentals apply," Friis said. The studcnLS themselves have e.itprcssed amau ment at how much work actually is involved in putting a paper together. " I never thought about what " cnt into mak ing an ad before the class.

Evaluation receives an 'A' by Celesle Trll-z
" It was like a fairytale coming up here," said Jim Schmidt, who con· ducted an evaluation of the Vocn1ional Techn1C.ll Center. said. Schmidt addressed the IC Board of Trustel'S on April 21 abou1 the re<iults of his extensive e-.aluation. Some faculty members and 70-80 students were intcr,·iewcd in the vo-tech center about its availability and quality of services. " I was pleasantly impressed." Schmidt said. " It was nice 10 sit at my desk and evaluate all the positive feedback."
The m1cn•1ewed vo-tcch students felt that they were accepted as a part of the school but felt a little apprehensive abou1 using the student services on 1he academic side. This is a normal problem, according 10 Schmidt. "The vo-tech students have a certain
feeling of gratiludc toward their (vo, 1ech) center nnd will tend to use those (student services) faciliti~ more," he said. The faculty was equally devoted 10 the vo-u:ch cen1cr. They were pleased whh the overall function of 1hc cc111cr but said they needed more assis1ance, he said. The only other problem, occordlng to the evaluators. was the confusion over the Career Development Center. ''It seemed to be more or an adult learning center than anything else." Schmidt said. Other issues discussed a1 the mcc1 ing were of raising the tuition and fee rates and parking and facilities budget for the 88-89 school year. President Rohen Bennett requested 10 table bo1h issues due to the sndiscrepan. cies of the intended use of raised fees.
Proposal voices need to upgrade computer labs by Randall Green Budget committee meetings slated for the upcOm· ing week will determine the fate of carnpu.s expansion plans. The expansion of multi·uscr computer labs is one such proposal that remains in limbo, Kay Nelson . said. According 10 Nelson, Computer Curriculum Com• mittec (CCC) chairman. the propOSal has been review· ed and honed, but a few changes were suggested at a meeting Thursday, Apnl 28. We will take another look a1 it on Monda>· and Tuesday. Nelson said. "The next step is to meet with the dc;ins 10 arra_ngc a meeting amidst several other budget agendas," Nelson said. The CCC members said they were hopeful thai1 the commi11ec would ge1 the proposnl worded sa1isfactori· ly so members would all be in agreement. Members voiced concerns about the studen t/ faculty growth needs and the possibilities for future curriculum goals related 10 multi-user facilities, Nelson said. Tom Lyons, instructional media services coor· dinator and commiuec member, said multi-user facilities are labs that multiple depanmenLS or curriculums and s1udcn1s can use. The proposal the CCC is working on is recommending that the school purchase about IS new P'TSOnal

computers to upgrade and enlarge the Apple/HP lab in the M-A building, according to SttYe Ruppel, director of computer services. Ruppel is working with the Apple/HP lab supervisors to compile a statistical evaluation based on student and curriculum use in that facility. la addition. the proposal includes a request for the development of another facility on campus that would suppon curriculum development for programs in the communication ans/ journalism areas, Nelson added. Ruppel mentioned that the oommittcc is finding that almost all depanment.s on campus have the need for computer aa:essibslity for studcnLS and faculty . Funding options for the computer lab upgrade are the stumbling blocks, according to Ruppel. One of the options for supporting the funding for the proposal i.s to assess a minimal lab use fee, Nelson said. Other options were included in the proposal, which will be weighed by the budget committee. Nelson added. The committee recognizes that many careers NIC studenLS are pursuing require compu1cr literacy and skills. he said. Although NIC cannot expect to com· pete with larger c-0Ueges for the cutting edge of stu· dent computing resources, we believe NI C must c~atinuc to expand iLS facilitics in these areas. Ruppel said,

Human rights activist concentrates his efforts by Colleen Perron
Tony Stewart i.s indeed a very busy man. Besides be· ing a political science ins1ructor, he is deeply in\'ohed and comrmucd 10 projcct.S not only in 1he North Idaho area. bu1 also Washington, Montana, Oregon and Wyoming. His unceasing energies are directed toward such issues as prevcn1ing racism and prejudice, harrassmcn1 and di~mation and get ting at 1he rool causes of these problems as qujckJy as possible. He i5 also iovol"cd with Hospice, an organiia1ion lhal helps 1erminally ill patients and lheu families cope with 1he problems and subsequent rewards associated with keeping the pa11en1S home until the event of I.heir death. Stewart stated he was not directly involved with the Hospice staff or volumecrs, but concerned himself with finding new and creative ways to fund this very important community project. Al one lime. S1ewan said, the Hospice board was faced with the very real prospect or closing its doors, as only S700 rcmruned in the coffer. An appeal 10 the community brought an immedia1e response and funds have not been a problem since. S1ewan is reluc1an1 to talk about himself or his accomplishmcnu in a personal sense, always referring 10 those many people who help in the collective struggle to overcome unjusticcs as they occur. He said he has always had a suong sense of purpose about racism and prejudice, not only involving blacks, but also women, children and 1he terminally ill-those least able to defend themselves.
He speaks glo"'i ngl, of the first annbcrs3!) of 1he incorporation of the North"'cst Coalition Against Malicious Harassmem. A suoog supponer and bard "orker along with S1ewan is Father Bill \\'as,smu1h. \\ assmuth considered himself the coalition's "front man" and StC"'an as the " detail man:· He said. "Tony's heart is in 1he right place: his '-hole self and energy is de\'otcd to the cause of civil rights. The man 'walks bis talk' as lhc cxp~sion goes. He affirms and supporu human dignity for e,eryone:· Margaret Fedje. who has known S1ewan for 20 years. stated he has alwa)'S been veT) dedicated and driven, even as a young man in college. Fcdje. who knows Stewart's family, says it's no sur· prise lhat be is just as commined no"' as ever, as these issues were the family's daily 1opic of discussion. Although the outdoor acu,il) that Stewan enjoys lhc moSt is tennis. what Stewart docs most often involves researching. writing and calling, always organizing and re-organizing, paying scrupulous a11cn1ion 10 details and all the factors that help things run smoothly. Stewart's associates say that he docsn 't have a private life. or that his public life is his prh•atc life. This doesn't seem 10 bother him. His drive and dedication make life a challenge and is very fullrtlling. Some fell 1ha1 his recent decision 10 delegate some of his outside rcs-ponsibilicics to others so he could spend more time with his students was a sign he was retiring.
Nothing could be furiher from the truth. according to \\'assmu1h. So. it seems the public will continue 10 henr about Tony S1ewar1 along w11h his fricn~ and strong supporters io the ongoing and never-ending struggle for cwil rights and human dignity.

Education value judged by computer facilities To debase the importance of computer literacy in today's evolving technological society is a fallacy of logic. To attend a college that does not adequately prepare studentS for the rigors of computer applications in the academic world is a lack of good judgment. NIC Computer Curriculum Commiuee (CCC) Chairma n Kay Nelson said. it is common knowledge tha t several major universities in this country recommend that students own personal computers in order to be successful in their academic pursuits. Carnegie Mellon College in Pittsburg requires it, according to Steve Ruppel, director of computer services at NIC. Graduates of these universities have skills in current computer technology, which enhances their abilities to obtain good paying jobs in a variety of careers. Knowledge of how 10 use microcomputers can make journalists more marketable in journalism. according to Gretchen Berning. Not only word processing skills arc necessary now. but addi tional skills 10 do electronic page lay•out and produce graphics and anwork are required. she said. These are just a few examples of career oppor1uni1ks directly related to computer literacy. Ye1 many people, faculty and students alike, arc hesitating 10 take 1he plunge into the tidal waters of computer knowledge at some small colleges.
I-~···························..
NIC bas a mulu-user computer lab. It 1s stocked "1th Hewlett Packard terminals and Apple II per~oaal computers. Nelson said the CCC has documented that those machine~ arc several year.; old and beginning to fail. Repair costs arc beginning 10 outrun replaeffl1ml com for ne\\ machines. In addition. s1amtics released by computer scr\'ices sho" a gradual reduction of use on the HP terminals. which take up half the lab facility. Although lab use statistics show a slight reduction in ne" user tests being taken. they show )Leady increase in total hours used by students. The multi-user lab i.: often reserved for classes. about 30 percent of the time (usually prime user time). so students often complain about not ha,ing enough open lab hours, according 10 Toni Spatola. Apple/ HP lab supervisor. Studen1 demands for computer literacy arc outgro\\ ing -.:1c·s multi-user compu1.:r lab facility, which is becoming outdated in tern:s of 1ype of machines and software and outgrown b~ computer literate students. Currently the business administration depanment (academic) in Room A-7 and the computer science business administration departmem (vocational) in Room SI H 201 have stateof-the-art personal computer technology in their classrooms. According 10 clson. these classrooms are full most school days; in addi-
1
uon. curriculum C\pansion has been requested by student~ and facult }. It is encouraging 10 see NIC trying 10 maintain a level of computer competency in its curnculums. but unfortunately. this does not directly help the student who is not currentl y enrolled in one of their progrnms-hence limiting the use and educational value of these facilities. Thanks to the CCC and its concerned members, NIC may expand and upgrade the compu1er multi-user facilities in the near future. However. money, or the lack of it, i~ the main concern. Several suggesoons have been proposed 10 remedy the financial woes college administrators and trustees will be faced with this spring at the budget mceting.s. The importance of computer literacy cannot be overlooked. NIC administrators, trustees and students should begin taking steps in the direction of upgrading muti-user computer lab facilities. NIC students may have to take some responsible action 10 assist in the fi nancial burden of these measures-this may increase tui tion next year. Education has differen t values to everyone. Unless this college upgrades its computer curriculums and facilities, students will be wasting a portion of their tuition moncyno matter what the cost.
·······························································~~·········· Spring break schedule issue sparks heated debate Dear Editor: I am writing in regard to Walter Ross' " Sentinel Opinion·· in the April 21. 1988 edition of the Sentinel. I can understand Mr. Ros.s' frustration at ha,·ing 10 find safe and sane occupations for his children during their spring break: however. as a ne" spaper person. he also expressed the frustration of one writing an article without gathering all his facts. I ha"e several questions for Mr. Ross. When did you fi rst realize the
dates for NIC's spring break? They were published in the 1987-88 calendar. which was made pubhc during the spring of 1987; therefore, it was no surprise announcement sprung on an unsuspecting student body by a wicked and sadistic administration and faculty. (My choice of words, not his.) How many school districts did you suncy 10 find out the dates or their spring breaks? Contrary to popular, uninformed opinion, not all school
Letters to the editor are welcomed by the Sentinel. Those who submit letters should limit them to 300 words, sign them legibly and provide a telephone number and a ddress so that authenlici· ty can be checked. Although most letters are used, some may not be printe because they do not meet the above requirements or because they 1) are similar to a number of lette rs already received on the same s ubject, 2) advocate or attack a religion or denomination 3) are possibly libelous, 4) are open letters (letters must be al dressed to the editor), or 5) are Illegible. Letters should be brought to Room 1 of the Sherman School or mailed to the Senti nel in care of North Idaho College, 1000 W. Garden Ave., Coeur d'Alene, Idaho 83814.
districts in the five-county area sef\cd by NIC have the same week for their break. Which of these districLS would you like NlC's to match? Is it fair to cater to District 271 when a fair segment of !C's student population comes from Se\'eral other nearby districLS? Did you question neighboring school districts to discover their own on-going plan for a common spring break? It might be wonh your while to ask ho,, that plan is progressing.
In closing, let me again state that I sympathi1.e with parentS who siruggle with the burden of balancing family, jobs. and loving care for their children. My classes were attended by a number of children during different spring breaks. But I deeply resent the use of a college publication for an angry article that cannot substantiate with facts sufficient reason for the anger. Thank you. Sincerely, Judilh Brower IC Math Dept .

Fund feud unnecessary between ASNIC, trustees rainee turk
The somewhat heated matter of ASNJC representatives demandir,g that the NIC Board of Trustees refood illegally levied fees held in an outdoor facilities fund is worth lengthy consideration, but not a batlle between those who represent the associated students of NIC and those who represent our school as a whole. ASNIC and the Board should be a team that works together to improve our school. Yes, the fees collected over the pas1 six years should have been us-
ed each year they were collected as the Idaho Code states, but I solely doubt that the funds were scheming)y tucked away in the out.door facilities fund to purposely grow into $279,000. Instead, I believe lhat a lack of communication existed within the Boa.rd about lhe collected fees and no one bothered to bring an end to lhe fees after 1982 when the collection began. In lhe minutes for the April 15, 1982, boa.rd of trustees meeting, lhe fee labeled "outdoor facilities
fee'' ... "was 10 be placed in a separate reserve account to begin accumulating funds for future spons facilities and/ or parking lot expansion." I do not behe\·e the money has been collected illegally on purpose; however, I do belie,·e that now that the mistake has been discovered, the money should be rightfully returned to those students who were charged with the fee. Or, perhaps the Idaho Code should be changed so 1ha1 money collected from tuition can be accumulated over a number of years and used 10 improve the campus in whatever way is necessary. The way in which lhis move was passed implies that the money is 10 accumulate until needed, so it seems part of the blame belongs to the ignorance of the members of the boa.rd of trustees in 1982.
Failure 10 research if the money could be legally collected and accumulated has led to the problem that now exists. Both sides have had good intentions as 10 what they planned to do with the money. NIC President Robert Bennett planned 10 pave and light NIC parking lots and improve campus facilities with the money. according 10 a recent article in the Spokesman Review. Former ASNIC President Pat Reilly said ASNIC hopes to return the money to the students who have paid the fees in 1he past six years.
So, instead of demanding fees be returned and refunded, ASNIC and the Board should work toget her for the benefit of the students and lhe overall image of our school.
Student boxed in~ cops cannot help Dear Editor: Today I spent more 1han an hour of my Lime with various members of NIC and Coeur d'Alene law enforcement. My Volkswagon bus was wedged between two cars. and I couldn't move it. When I arrived at school, l parked on Garden Avenue near Sherman School. There were no other ca.rs around; however, one hour later, I was hopelessly stuck! The car behind me was four inches from my bumper, and was parked more than two feet from the curb with four feet of space behind him! It was apparent that the driver came to school in a hurry and gave no thought 10 common courtesy! It turns ou1 1h01 he was not registered for classes. He only had an NIC sticker so 1he NJC officer couldn't find him. The officer hod to find the woman who owned the car in front of me, pull her out of class and have her move her cru so that I could go home. The Cd' A police came and gave the car behind mine a ticket for parking too far from the curb, but could do no more. I just want the driver of that car behind me to know that he caused severnl people a lot of time and cffon by just being careless. I'd also like 10 add that had it been up to me, he would have been towed! Towill,lt would have cost him SSO or more. Maybe next time he'll pay attention when he parks. Thanks for !ming me publicize thh. I really feel robbed of that hour. Thanks also to 1he 'IC la\\ enforcement and the" oman who mo, ed her car. I appreciated your help.

Tutor lab dilemma solved by better communication Developmental education is something administrators are trying to give new meaning to while others are trying to implement its meaning in practical application. The base meaning of developmental education is the key element the Peer Tutoring Center in A-21 was founded on, according to Sheila Hohman, center supervisor. Right now she said she is beginning to wonder if anyone cares about that, though. Two major issues surrounding the Tutoring Center have stirred strong emotions among students and faculty directly involved with the organization. According to Hohman, several student tutors currently arc working without pay since the budget coffers went dry last pay perioc'.. In addition, the lab is scheduled to be relocatt"Ci to the Hedlund Vocational Career
According to a tutor \\ ho wishes 10 remain anonymous, it will be a disservice to students 10 take it away from a central location. The tutor said that after it (PTC) was moved to its present location, students commented that it felt more a part of the school and was convenient. Hohman contends that it no"' virtually is a "crossroad" for many students who use it. She believ~ the move to the Hedlund Buil<i•n" would cause the center tv lose the special learning atmo~pner· she says was created by tht" ~tu· dent lUlOrS.
blems of student learning disabilities. He said that the incent 10 relocate the tutor lab was 10 create a more nexible space for students and tutors to work in, and added the college could use that room more efficiently as classroom space. Helen Bra~on, director of developmental education, has been appoinced to manage the new facility, which Bennett said was deliberately chosen because it was the most auracth e. He hopes the move will strengthen the relationships between the vocational and academic side of the schools, and he said he felt this would work weU with the tutorial program.
On the other side of the imagined fence. President Robert Bennett aid that he is striving for a new focus on developmental education-a topic he feels addresses the pro-

As Benneu said, colleges are steeped in tradition and change is hard 10 accept, yet it is easy 10 see the importance of the concerns Hohman has voiced. It is 100 late to change this decision, but in the future it could be good advice for department chairs and supervisors to try communicating better so as 10 avoid this type of internal strife.

Parking gripe legitimate but driver may be spoiled and staff members get off entirely 100

"l have 10 ge1 here at 7 a.m. just 10 find a parking place," an NIC stu· dent says. "That ·s nothing." chimes another. "I ge1 here at 9:30 for my 10 a.m. class and have 10 dri\,e around for a half-hour before I find a place 10 park." NIC students just can't find a place ideal enough 10 park their cars-there's just not enough room. The 1ru1h about parking at NIC, however, is that there is more than ample space on campus. Eas1 of 1he 1ennis couns is over an acre of emp1y parking loi. loca1cd less than 400
yards from any classroom on campus. Although it was a legitimate gripe that the lot is 001 paved and was freouently muddy, 1he warm weather has transformed ii into an adequate enough place 10 park a car. S1uden1s still refuse to use the ample parking, however. and so 1he 101 remains empty. The reason they don't is a combination of being spoiled and downright lazy. With the availabili1y of parking at NIC, compared to any other college in 1he naLion, studems and facuhy
they would quickly realize 1ha1 park·
ing within a mile of their classroom or office would be unheard of. If a student expected to park directl)• in front of his dormitory, Lhey would be sorely and consistently disappointed-Likewise, if a faculty member expected special designated parking. At many institutions cars are all but banned, just by virtue of space limitalions, and whatever parking is available is minimal. The average person is relegated 10 parking his car in a "safe'' neighborhood and walking. That's at places that actually have parking spaces. 1he same places where you have to buy a very expcn· sive parking permit. Conversely, NIC students, faculty and staff are provided abundant free parking within easy walking distance of an)' place on campus.
NlC is a small school geographically, and its small population affords its students 1he luxury of individualized aLLention unheard of at larger institutions. Expending 1be energy to walk 200 yards-from a car that is all but assured individualized protection-for an invaluable educational experience is not a great sacrifice to make. Try walking less than a mile from your car to your classroom al U of I Moscow, or U-dub, or U-na.meit-<hanccs are very slim it could be done. NIC students-and faculty and staff alike-should take advantage of the easy life this campus affords and console ourselves during our short walks to and from classes by enjoying our beautiful surroundings. It's a big world ou1 there. Maybe the walks would give us all the fresh air we need 10 help us cast off our unhealthy. sluggish a1ti1udes... we might even pause and appreciate life.

For nil of those unfor· tunatcs, here is a self-guided walking tour of the NJC an department. The official title of the class is AR-99-Art Through Osmosis. The tour begins at the Hubbard Suttt entrance to the C-A building. After entering the door. an almost immediate change in attitude takes place. The senses will seem to be heightened, and some students find that they become intensely creative. as if by magic. Next, mount the stairs that lead to the an department and pause for a moment on the landing. At this point, the student should renect on the posters that greet the art student each day on the way 10 class. "An," one says. "Creativity." cries another. These arc joined by others that speak of " Mystery," "Talent. '' "Judgment" and "Yearning." The capital let· ters on these posters spell out the word "ACMTJY," which probably means something to 3rtists.

The cool air did little 10 discourage panicipants, and, in fact, many prerer run· ning in such 3 climate. Probabl)' the biggest glitch in the 7.46-mile ract was when a platform broke off the back of a truck. spilling numerous TV cameras and rcponers onto the pa,-tmen1. The runners. who were jus1 lea,ing the slllning line. '"re unaffected by the mishap. FintShing the race were 53,106 indi"iduals-mcn, women. children. senior citizens-using their \3rious mod~ of transport. Almost 58.000 runners ,.,,re registered. A few people 1ripped and fell . and one "'as treated for heat cxhausiion in the 12-kilometer course.

A time tor reflection .............................. The women's cross-country ream stancd the season off feeling exceptionally srrong and healthy. By October, the women harriers w~re preparing for a trip 10 Nationals-still feeling strong and healthy.
shannon hayward
The high point in November of 1987 was the NJCAA championship trophy brought home by the women's cross-country team. Audrey Carc.n·s second-place finish helped clinch the title for NI C. And I know she must feel proud.
Another school year is coming 10 a close, and 1 find myself looking forward 10 some warm and lazy summer afternoons.
By the end of the semester, the Lady Cardinals basketball team was sporting a nearly perfect record and there was talk of Nationals. The wrestlers were hanging tough, hoping 10 qualify for yet another chan.ce at ationals themselves.
nd of a semester can mean many different thin; ~or different people. But I think almost everyone at one Lime or another stops and takes a deep breath-and reflects for a moment. Th
But wait! There's more! This was just the first .semester.
It's a time 10 lhin1c back over lhe year and stand proud of our accomplishments, whether t.hey arc academic or athletic. NIC athletically accomplished a great deal during the 1987-1988 school year. Things started off fine in the falJ. The wrestling ica.m, having won its third national championship the previous year, returned feeljng extremely optimistic.
The New Year brought a flu epidemic which seemed to sweep over the campus (if not the whole town) and tack.l.e even the healthiest of healthfreak.s. Bolh basketball teams suffered, with many players sidelined while nursing the bug. By February. things were getting back to nor· ma! and both the wrestling and womcn·s basket-

ball teams were gearing up for Nationals. The prospects looked very good for both reams. Spring fever hit campus the first pan of March, caused by a premature warm spell. and the baseball team was finally able to begin outdoor practice sessions. Meanwhile, the wrestlers basked once again in the glory of a first-place ran king in the National Junior CoUcge Wres11ing Championships held in Ohio. Now imagine the adrenalin going through a person's body after winning for the founh time. The Lady Cardinals traveled to Mississippi in April for Nationals and while chey didn't place, they did cod the season with an impressive 28 wins. Baseball season was in full swing, with the cagers boascing a 12-2 record. The crack and field team was hard at work preparing for Nationals in mid-May in Texas. As you can see, NIC has much to be proud of
as far as spons goes. The hard work and dedication displayed by these individuals is truly admirable. I'm excited to see what nexc year will bring!

Jungen had some bad luck when another rider clip· ped his fron1 wheel and spilled him onto the pavement. giving him some nice "road rash." Austin called it, on hi~ right leg and hip. However. he wasn't worried abou1 his skin as much as he wos about his bil.c. which survived the ordeal fine . "I had just looked down for an instant to adjust my shifter when I heard our tire~ rubbing. then, pow, I was down," Jungen said. Austin started his day by taking a hike down into the par!. and roe!. climbing a couple of hours before the race. His relaxation tactics worked-he placed sixth in Catagory 4.

Thousand5 of people come yearly to picnic, ca.mp, hike and ride mountain bike,, accor· ding 10 park rangers. "Climbing is lhc mam attracuon to the park," a park ranger noted. Oregon is unique in how it suppons mountaineering and cUmbing by providing support foc1h1ies like Smith's bivouac area for climbers 10 camp. Rangers have said 1ha1 1he increased use of 1hc area is helping pay for e~pansion of the walk-in campground. According LO park rangers , the nt:'4 campground will even ha~e showers.
