Weiss, who has been with CCC since 1969, said that Clackamas is now one of the leaders in community services and com munity education and is rated, as one of the best in the nation. Commenting on the broad scope of his program of community services, Weiss said that off campus locations for community education range from 70 to over 100 class locations each term. "In working with the public schools and carrying a community-based program," said Weiss, "better services are provided to the public as well as better usage of the facili ties (public schools and CCC), more effi cient use of tax dollars and funds and im proved instruction and expanded programs." ’'***^11 Hw, < .1 ■ ./äsa ì - „3 ' Wil fol.
