Patriot Editors Confronted; Newspapers Confiscated
By Dan Stuart
Editor-In-Chief
Two student editors of The
Patriot, an underground campus
newspaper, were confronted Tues¬
day morning by college authorities
while distributing back issues of
their publication. According to
Philip Mullendore, Director of Col¬
lege Safety, students Tim Wikle
and Jeff Wright were approached
in the Quad shortly before 10 a.m.
by A1 Kauti, Dean of Student Ac¬
tivities. They were at a table in
front of a printed sign which read,
“Patriot back issues here from two
guys who are surplus dealers.”
While discussing the incident,
Kauti said, “I asked them if they
had a clearing house card, which is
something any person must have to
distribute literature on campus.
They did not present one. I in¬
formed them that they could not
distribute their material because
they were not complying with the
policies of the Board of Trustees.
Wikle claimed that he had a right to
distribute his papers because the
Courier was also distributed on
campus. When I maintained that
they were in violation of college
policy and told them to desist, they
refused. I went back to my office
and brought them a copy of the
board policy they were violating,
but they still refused. At that point
I went to the College Safety office
for assistance.”
Mullendore said he asked
Wikle and Wright for identification.
“Wright tried to point out that they
had as much right to distribute
material as did the Courier. Since
they did not have an official clear¬
ing house aard, they did not have
that right. They were not only
violating district policy, they were
violating California Penal Code
(556.1).” According to that code, “It
is a misdemeanor for any person to
place . . . upon any property in which
he has no estate or right of
possession of any sign . . . without the
consent of the owner, lessee, or
person in lawful possession of such
property ...”
“The suspects continued to
argue about their right to distribute
the material,” Mullendore said, “I
informed both of them that dis¬
cipline would be initiated regarding
the matter, and that they had the
right to a hearing with Kauti on the
subject. When I asked Wright to
refrain from distributing his mate¬
rials until that hearing, he said that
he could not guarantee that he
would do so. I then told him that if
he continued to pass out his papers
that he would be subject to arrest.
It was only then that he agreed to
comply. They were extremely un¬
cooperative.”
Kauti said that the reason for
the regulations on literature dis¬
tribution is “not to censor anybody.
We have lots of groups on campus,
INCAR (International Committee
Against Racism) for example, that
pass out pretty volatile material. If
I needed to be a censor I wouldn’t
stay here. Part of my job is to
enforce campus policy. This partic¬
ular rule is set up just so we can
monitor what’s going on in the
Quad. For example, we wouldn’t
want YAF (Young Americans For
Freedom) and INCAR to show up
at the same spot at the same time
and argue about who gets it. We
aslo want to avoid having too many
things going on at any particular
time. The Clearing House Card rule
helps us keep tabs on the events in
the Quad.”
The policy in question is con¬
tained in the Student Handbook,
which reads, “A clearing house
card must be filed with and ap¬
proved by the Deans of Student
Activities five days in advance to
distribute materials or petitions.
Approval by the Deans of Student
Activities shall be granted as a
matter of course, subject to con¬
sideration of the time, place and
manner regulations set forth in this
policy.” Kauti said, “if Wikle and
Wright had just gone through the
proper procedures, they wouldn’t
have had any trouble. In fact,
Angela Toft has distributed Patriots
from the USA Club table and that
was okay.”
After the confrontation,
Mullendore confiscated several
copies of at least eight different
issues of the Patriot. “The matter
may be brought before the City
Prosecutor for possible criminal
action. Because of that situation, it
was my duty to seize the printed
material as evidence.”
Courier efforts to contact
Wikle and Wright for their com¬
ments were met by hostile
sarcasm. This writer managed to
get Wikle on the phone to discuss
the incident. “Tim, this is Dan
Stuart of the Courier and I’d like to
know if you’d care to comment on
what happened Tuesday,” I said.
Wikle responded, “I have a
message for you from Jeff Wright:
you’re ugly and your mother
dresses you funny.”
“We’re not out to censor anybody. We have lots of groups on campus . . .
that pass out pretty volatile material. If I needed to be a censor I wouldn’t
stay here. Part of my job is to enforce campus policy ... if Wikle and
Wright had just gone through the proper procedures, they wouldn’t have
had any trouble.” —Dean Alvar Kauti, Student Activities

/AS Selects Summer Board
Cofer, Svonkin Continue Involvement
Joshua L. Smith, a New York City College official, was recently
picked as the chancellor of California’s community college system. Smith
is credited with having “turned around” a Manhattan community college
hurt by the loss of funding and students, according to an LA Times article.
Smith will take the place of Gerald Hayward, who had been
chancellor since 1980.
California community colleges have seen a three-year enrollment
decline, but still manage to take over one million students each year.
According to Smith, this makes “community colleges here the largest
system of higher education in the free world.”
Flea Markets will be held the first Sunday of the summer months
including July 7, August 4, and September 1. The markets run from 9 a.m.
to 3 p.m. on the Hill Ave. campus parking lot.
□
The PCC Foundation more than doubled its goal of $60,000 dollars for
the 60th Anniversary fundraiser. The money will go back into the campus
in various ways.
The five member summer interim
board was elected Tuesday by the AS
Board. According to AS President
Chris Cofer, “there was no major
publicity for the selection. Everybody
who attended any recent meetings was
aware of the process.” The AS Con¬
stitution dictates that the AS Board
shall appoint a summer interim cabinet
to fulfill governmental duties until the
AS elections in October. “This group is
designed to carry out current busi-
nessand perpetuate projects that are in
progress,” Cofer said, “it is their job to
prepare the school for the fall
semester.”
The interim body is comprised of
Cofer, Student Trustee Scott Svonkin,
vice-president of academic affairs Jim
Mares, coordinator of special pro¬
grams Karen Vargo, coordinator of
cultural affairs Steve Amezola, and an
alternate, Dipak Chudasama.
The summer board will elect their
chairman and treasurer at their first
meeting, which has yet to be scheduled.
The group will control a budget of
slighly less than $5,000.

Lisa Bogen, the Spring OMD Presi¬
dent was accepted by UCLA and plans
to transfer there in the fall, majoring in
International Relations. Lisa was the
winner ' of the 1985 James
О
Scott
Award, receiving a check for $150 as
well as a $600 PCC Flea Market Schol¬
arship.
When OMD President, Carmen Bar-
celo died suddenly in an automobile
accident, Bogen assumed the responsi¬
bility as OMD President. Dr. John W.
Casey, Superintendent/President said,
“Lisa Bogen is to be highly commended
for the way she stepped in and took
over as President of OMD.” Dorothy
Kolts, journalism instructor and OMD
adviser said, “Lisa has proven to be one
of OMD’s finest presidents. She is
reserved and self-effacing, always
praising others and placing them in the
spotlight. She gives constantly of her
time and talent, asking nothing for
herself. She’s tops.”
As one of her first acts as OMD
President, Bogen spearheaded the
Carmen Barcelo Memorial Gift of $440
to the American Red Cross on April 8 to
honor Carmen’s memory.
Bogen increased the OMD participa¬
tion in campus activities. Members
participated in the Sunday morning
Flea Markets and at the 60th An¬
niversary picnic held last Saturday.
Money collected from the picnic and
Flea Market sales went toward the
OMD scholarship fund.
Kathleen Cann, OMD Scholarship
Chairman said, “It takes a strong,
dedicated and organized person to run
any organization and Lisa displays all
these qualities. She represents what
OMD is all about: giving service will¬
ingly and unselfishly.”
Bogen joined the International Club
in the fall of 1982 and in the spring of
1983, she became the club’s vice presi¬
dent. She received the $2,000 Tippy-
Mothershead Scholarship from the Ital¬
ian American Fund. The scholarship
was given to an American student who
would live in Italy, and study Italian
culture and language for one year. In
June 1983, Bogen started her year’s
sojourn. Upon returning to PCC in the
fall of 1984, she knew that her field of
study would be international relations.
Alice Mothershead, former Director
of Communications Liaison for Foreign
Students and Americans Abroad at
PCC said, “Lisa has been faithful to the
scholarship committee ideals and con¬
tinues to be helpful to the group in
every possible way.”
Remarking on Bogen's involvement
in campus activities, Alvar Kauti,
Dean of Student Activities said, ‘‘Lisa
is one of the most conscientious per¬
sons you can find. Any task she starts,
she puts 110 percent amount of energy
into it to accomplish it. She becomes
directly and personally involved.”
