Editor__ ____________________________
“ We (Clackamas Community
College) would examine our ex
isting curriculum that would be
compatible with OIT’s (Oregon
Institute for Technology) cur
riculum,” said Bob Ellis', assis
tant dean educational services,
when discussing an idea that
would enable students in.voca
tional programs here to transfer
to OIT.
The OIT is a state institute
located in Klamath Falls, which
Offers vocational programs for
college students. Clackamas Col
lege is looking into a program for
which CCC will provide the lower
division works; and OIT the
higher division works.
Ellis explained that there are
two options the college has to
choose from-enroll the students
OIT in Klamath Falls, or keep
them in Clackamas County.
In order to keep the students
here two buildings need to be
acquired. The first phase of the
project is to occupy an elemen
tary school, located bn Harmony
Rd., near Clackamas Town
Center. The second phase will be
occupying a junior high school,
across from the elementary
school.
The elementary school will be
renovated and remodelled which
will cost the college $200,000. It is
expected to be done June 1988
and' will'be ready to be occupied
Sept. 1988.
The junior high building will
be occupied 3-5 years later than
the elementary building. It will

cost the college a million dollars
to renovate and remodel it.
“The only cost we will have is
paying half the cost of the facility
and the maintenance of that
facility.” The county will pay
$1.2 million, the college will pay
$1,2 million and OIT will pay
$1.3 million for this operation,
Ellis said.
The advantage of this project,
according to Ellis, is that it “gives
students some opportunities in
this county for education.”
Mt. Hood and Portland Com
munity Colleges already have
programs like this with OIT.
They have a curriculum which in-
tegrades with OIT that CCC does
not have. “We might have to do
some modifications, to make sure
that students can transfer without
any problems.”
The new buildings acquired by
CCC are in a “wonderful loca
tion” with regard to transporta
tion, population and business ac
tivity. “It’s located in the center
of population in our district. To
have a facility where most of the
people live I think is very impor
tant. The center of business
development and training will be
up there. We are a little unique
not to have the college in the
center of the population.”

If you see someone smoking in
a no smoking area, you are asked
to do the following :
1. In a calm, reasonable manner,
inform the individual that he/she
is smoking in a No Smoking area.
Give the location of the nearest
“Smoking Area,” and request
that the individual move to that
area.
2. If the individual does not res
pond to your request to move to
a smoking area, inform the
Building Officer, a supervisor or
administrator.
3. If still no response, call Public
Safety at 657-8400, ext.302 or
303. Public Safety can also be
paged through the switchboard,
dial “0.” (Public Safety will try
to get voluntary compliance. If
necessary, however, a citation
may be issued.)
