Number of graduates decreases...
Over 450 students to graduate
by Mark A Borrelli
Editor-in-Chief
An estimated 450students will
be part of the 22nd graduating
class of Clackamas Community
College. The commencement will
be held June 8 in Randall Hall at
7 p.m.
According to Evaluation
Specialist Marie Feddern, the
number of students applying to
graduate this year is lower than
thatoflastyear’s graduating class.
“I don’t really have a good
feel on why the numbers are down,”
said Feddern. “We don’t have as
many GED certificates as last year,
so that makes us a little smaller
this year.”
Although just 450 will go
through the ceremony, Feddern
explained that many more are
eligible. “We generally only have
about half of the people who are

Grambusch to retire, leaves
Norm's Cafe a campus legacy
by Mark A Borrelli
Editor-in-Chief
After 17 years as Food Serv­
ice Supervisor, Norm Grambusch
will retire at the end of this year.
“I’ve reached a point in my
life where I want to do other
things,” said Grambusch.
Grambusch managed his own
restaurant for nine years, and was
Food Service Supervisor at an­
other school before coming to
Clackamas in September of1973.
He has seen a lot of change.
When Grambusch came to
Clackamas enrollment was around
300 and the Community Center
wasn’t even constructed yet, but
Grambusch and his staff made the
best of what they had.
“When I first came here, the
Community Center building had
not been completed yet, so the
concession stand, in Randall Hall
served as the kitchen, and the
seating area around there was used
as the eating area,” said Gram­
busch.
An interesting story that
Grambusch tells is how the cafe­
teria came to be called “Norm’s.”
“That came about just a couple
ofyears ago when a girl from The
Print thought that up. Business
has just really picked up from
there.”
Grambusch says that good
employees made his job as Super­
visor easy through the years.
Among the employees is Sharon
Stallnecker, who was at CCC two
years before Grambusch.
“It’s really important to have
good employees in the food serv­
ice business. I’ve been fortunate;
the people have really worked well
asateamand havedonea tremen­
dous job,” said Grambusch.
Employees, as well as the
activities at the college, according
to Grambusch are the things that
he’ll miss the most.
“1’11 miss the activity, the stu­
dents, and all the people that I’ve
met.”
A successor to Grambusch has
not been named yet, and may not,
as according to Grambfisch the
college may opt to contract out to
fill his vacancy.
“I’m not really sure how they’re
going to fill the position, but I’ve
heard that they’re contemplating
hiring a managing contractor," said
Grambusch.
