Qf fa new jo[,
Engstrom, 43, has attended Clark and Van­
couver Colleges, and has a bachelor of science
degree from Portland State University and a
masters in social work from Boston College. He
applied for the job of officer/director because the
College “has a good reputation,” and is. well-
supported by the community.
Engstron also stressed that the development
center is not “a magical office that does it all,”
but “only appears as part of the total college
community. We’re an assistance to them,” he
said.

Now that he is employed at the College,
Engstrom said his new job will be a “flip-flop”
from the activities of his earlier job.
“Carrying out the priorities of the College,”
and “seeing if we (development center) can’t
find other ways to support activities the College
thinks are important,” are Engstrom’s goals for
his new job. He also describes himself as having
an ongoing commitment to higher education.
“I need to find out where I should be spen­
ding my time,” Engstrom said, as he has only
been employed for just over a week.
Error found in article
In last week’s issue of The
Print, a. front page story ran on
summer financial aid availabili­
ty for veterans.~
Scott Fischer, financial aid
officer, pointed out ah error in
the headline. The story dealt
with veterans’ benefits that go
toward summfer tuition. That,
however, is not actually finan-
‘dal aid,, but an entitlement,
Fischer said.
After the story ran, the
Financial Aid office received
calls from non-veterans,
wondering why they were turn­
ed down for aid and the vets
are not.
The Print regrets any
misunderstanding, stemming
from the article and the
headline. For further informa­
tion on summer school and
financial aid for fall term, con­
tact the aid department, ext.
