he board appropriated the
necessary $27,231 to fund
project. The balance of the
hes will come from grants
money that has already
budgeted.
fen Nickel, chairperson of
board, requested that in the
kwhen proposals for fund­
fee presented to the board,
Posts be reflected, including
overhead and salaries.
The question of whether or
not to spend more funds for
staff development opportunities
was discussed to some length
along with ways to improve
staff development workshops.
According to Chuck Scott,
division chairperson for math
engineering and science, more
opportunities would be made
available by spending more mon­
ey on the programs.
Scott suggested such things
as making available tuition help
for instructors for additional
course work and funds for ad­
ministrative
conferences and
workshops.
He also feels that full-time
staff
development
personal
would be more effective in bring­
ing about staff development ac­
tivities on campus.
Shirley Cressler, science in­
structor and president of the
College's faculty association, said
that she would be more interes­
ted in the effect of staff develop­
ment on campus than in the
college developing a national
reputation. She also feels the
need for help in tuition for
course work for instructors.
The board will set up a win­
ter quarter workshop for dis­
cussing and setting objectives for
staff development, with an ex­
pert in the field to determine
where the college wants to.go.
The administration has been
directed to bring recommenda­
tions for college staff develop­
ment for the board to consider
at the April meeting.
In other business, the board:
-Approved motions to spend
$8,300 for new Xerox machines
-Reinstated the Educational
Aide Curriculum as a part-time
supplementary curriculum.
-Approved the hiring of Red-
daway/ROMA, architectural con­
sultants, to draw the blue prints
through the construction phase
of the science facility, the in­
dustrial occupations building and
related site work and landscap­
ing.
-Heard a report that a re-
ciprocal senior citizen Gold Card
agreement has now been reached
with Mt. Hood Community Col­
lege and that the Chemeketa
Community College Board will
act soon on the same proposal.

Representatives and in

Klamath
Falls Union High
School and spent seven years as
Assistant Professor at Oregon
Institute of Technology (OIT).
Heard has also served on the
Joint Committee on Ways and
Means and the State Emergency
Board for the past six years.
Last week he received the en­
dorsement of the Oregon As­
sociation of School Executives,
which is superintendents and
assistant superintendents of ele­
mentary and secondary schools-
in the state.
"I support a rededication by
the state to providing assistance
to career and vocational educa­
tion," he said.
"Making learning more avail­
able to all our citizens through­
out their lifetime is another con­
cept I support," Heard said.
"We must get away from the
notion that education starts at a
certain age and ends at a certain
age. Life-long learning and com­
munity school programs can do
much to solve the communi­
cation problems between edu­
cators and voters.
Heard sees education in Ore­
gon as SAT scores dropping,
schools closing, teachers turned
into bookkeepers *and administra­
tors and school board members
fighting annual wars with voters
over budgets.
"Then I look to the present
state superintendent and ask:
Where is the leadership needed
to help solve these problems?
Why aren't the talented people
and vast resources of the depart­
ment of education being used
to at least bring the problem in­
to focus and possibly find some
solution?' "he said.
"Neither
I, nor anyone else has received
an answer.
It has become evident over
the la;t three years that more
and more -decisions about educa­
tion are being made by the
legislature, according to Heard.
Heard's agenda for tomorrow
will be: 8:30 to 11 a.m , a tour
of the campus with Dr. John
Hakanson, college president; a
talk with the College staff from
11 a.m. to noon; from noon till
1 pm. he will talk with students
in the Fireside Lounge; and at
1 p.m.
he will dine in the
cafeteria.
