continued from page 1
the assistant child care coordinator.
In between studies and other re
sponsibilities, these student par
ents may have difficulty finding
the time to read to their children at
home, especially if they are single
parents, she said.
Because of this, reading to children
is already emphasized in the CCDC,
she said. But she welcomes the extra
resources and volunteers the new
program will bring to the center.
“Teachers are really excited about
the students coming in,” she said.
Student volunteers will read to
children ranging in age from 1 to 7
years old at the CCDC sites, she
said. And on the weekends, stu
dents will visit the Starbucks store
on 18th Street to read to cus
tomers’ children there.
Steve Ogo, the manager for the
18th Street Starbucks, worked with
Farrington to obtain the grant for
the University. He said the reading
program is part of Starbucks’ cor
porate philosophy of encouraging
individual stores to become part of
the local community.
The Storyteller Program also re
flects a company and its desire to
promote children’s literacy, he said.
“Kids and literacy are really big to
us,” he said. “It really fit in well
with what we want to do.”
With many students in the greek
system out of town for the sum
mer, student volunteers won’t be
lined up until the program begins
in the fall, greek adviser Shelley
Sutherland said.
One student who already plans to
participate, Jackie Reed, said she an
ticipates that many fraternity and
sorority members will get involved
with the program.
Reed, who is the treasurer for the
Kappa Delta sorority, said she is
looking forward to helping children
learn to read.
“This will be a first for me, and it’s
kind of exciting,” she said.
Cox
continued from page 1
ward schools that can attract and
keep students.
His work has increased enroll
ment statewide.
He said the budget battles and
finding the balance between quality
schooling and a higher education
budget that has been squeezed na
tionally were the most challenging
and rewarding parts of his career in
the OUS.
Bob Bruce, an assistant to the
vice chancellor, said Cox achieved
his success with an unmatched
power to listen critically, especial
ly in difficult deliberations.
“He worked for win-win situa
tions with people,” Bruce said.
University Vice President Dan
Williams said he thinks Cox will leave
a legacy for his work with the state’s
budget and creating performance
based governance at universities.
“He added incentive to the way
we do our work,” Williams said.
He said Cox made his and other
administrators’ jobs better by
strengthening the ties between
higher education and the business
and legislative communities. Dur
ing his term, Williams said, the two
had an increased respect for what
universities in Oregon do.
Bruce said no specific date has
been set for hiring a replacement,
but the process will be through a
combination of a nationwide hiring
process and nominations.
Cox said he will spend his last
months in office helping ease the
new chancellor’s transition until he
or she is ready to take the reins alone.
Involved with higher education
throughout the nation since 1969,
Cox first served as the president of
Southern Oregon University in Ash
land before becoming chancellor. Al
though a return to teaching might be
on the horizon, he wouldn’t say for
sure and will keep his options open.
“I’m not interested in retiring,”
he said. “I don’t think I’ll ever re
tire.”
