Ballot Measure 2 would reduce the income the College receives by 17-20 percents This would mean a loss of $2,400,000 to the College. A budget cut of this size would mean a lot of major changes at the College. Classes with low enrollment would have to be cut to allow the money spent on these pro grams to be used for more vital services. The classes that escape the ax would require an enrollment of 20-22 students and an absolute minimum enrollment of 18 students. The required absolute minimum is now 12. “We would lose some ser vices and counseling and testing services would be restricted,” Dr. John Hakan- son, College president, said.

Photo by Mike Templeton College prepares brochures for nationwide mailing The search for Clackamas Community College’s next president moves steadily on ward as the College prepares to mail out approximately 500 presidential description brochures nationwide. The brochures, which are being prepared by the public information department, were approved by the Board of Education last week. The brochure lists the per sonal and professional qualifications required, infor mation on the expected role of the president, history of the college, and something about the community in which the college is located. Pat Fitzwater, presidential search consultant for the Col lege, described the task of composing the brochures as “a long, tedious process.” Fitzwater was responsible for taking all the Board approved presidential candidate criteria and transcribing it into a broader format for the brochures. In addition to the brochures, Fitzwater said posi tion vacancy notices would be sent out to colleges and state associations for placement in classified ads. The brochures will be mailed soon after the notices are mail ed on Nov. 1. Applicants are asked to pro vide a cover letter with the completed application form, an essay explaining how the candidate meets the personal and profession qualifications, a statement defining his or her management style, a current resume and letters of reference, and placement credentials from his or her previous employer.
