Stradley dons policeman’s uniform for College By Heather Wright Of The Print PUBLIC SAFETY’S FINEST—New Public Safety Officer Mike Stradley stands beside College patrol car. Stradley became a campus officer in October. “I do not consider myself a stereotype law enforcement officer. I am here for a reason. I am à public servant,” Mike Stradley, Public Safety’s new officer, said. Stradley began working with Clackamas Community College’s Public Safety Office on Oct. 26. Being a new of ficer, Stradley works varied shifts equaling a 32 hour week. Stadley started his profes sion in Idaho as a security officer at a gold mine corpora tion. He worked there for one year before moving back to Oregon, where he worked at Beaverton Mall for security. After working there for a year, Stradley became a reserve of ficer at the Oregon City Police Department. He was sworn in as a reserve January 4, 1983. Stradley, 23, was born in California, his family moved to Oregon and lived in Portland for most of his life. He is married and has one son. “I am in this job to help people . . . what I mean is, I give out directions, help peo ple who are injured or have property stolen,” Stradley said. All public safety officers are also reserve officers at Oregon City Police Depart ment. “Reserve Officers must be 21 years of age, have a clean police record and must be a United States citizen,” Officer Gordon Huiras of Oregon City Police Depart ment said. Public safety officers are employees of the College. They must attend monthly reserve meetings at Oregon Ci ty Police Department, held on the second Wednesday of every month, and qualify with their guns on the gun range four times a year. Besides working at the college, public safety officers must ride 16 hours in a 30-day period with the Oregon City Police Department. “I like working with Public Safety because it pro vides a good basic experience for future employment in law enforcement,” Stradley said. Stradley is looking for ward for winter term classes to start. “Officer Stradley was highly recommended by the Oregon City reserves. Out of 70 applicants, Stradley was voted unanimously by the Public Safety’s selection board,” Chief of Public Safe ty Stan Johnson said. Agriculture theme for campus animal center By Kathy Johnson Of The Print Animal Science Center, students involved in livestock courses had to attend demonstrations at local farms or high schools. “This is still being done to a certain extent to involve students with the farm com munity,” Myers stated. “However, the drawback to this was that many times the class was large enough for the farmer to feel a certain amount of disruption by hav ing the class participate on a regular basis.” In March of 1982, the Animal Science Center became available for use by Clackamas Community Col lege. The purpose of the Center, which is located on the east side of the campus near Beaver Creek Road, is to allow students who are involved in the Agri-business curriculum a hands-on approach to developing skills in the handl ing and maintaining of The livestock which are livestock. presently being considered for “It makes for a more effi the facility are a breeding herd cient method of allowing of hogs and a breeding flock students to gain practical of sheep, with the idea of knowledge, not only of feeding out the market hogs livestock, but of the livestock and lambs.

Since the college lies within the Oregon City city limits, there were some specifications which needed to be met before building the livestock facility. These in cluded construction re quirements, counteraction of possible odors and color coat specifications of the building. Details had to meet the re quirements of DEQ (Depart ment of Environmental Quali ty) and the EPA (Environmen tal Protection Agency). The facility is now em phasizing the business aspect of livestock as well as other agricultural aspects within the curriculum. “We are trying to make it as close to a farm situation as possible,” Myers said. “We are also putting more em phasis on the involvement of 4-H, FFA and the Oregon State Extension with the facili ty.” The Animal Science Center is currently under the jurisdiction of the Agriculture Department, which is a part of the Agricultural Industrial division. Currently, there are part- time instructors who are in volved in teaching the cur riculum. They are planning to hire one full-time instructor for that curriculum, beginning in September of 1984.
