Co-op receives grant Accident claims life of student
by Jocelyn Gauthier
Feature Editor
CCC’s Co-op Education pro
gram recently received $128,943
as the first installment in a five-
year grant from the U.S. Depart
ment of Education to aid work
experience students.
The Co-op program is part of
all technical fields of study on
campus. One six-credit term of
co-op work experience is re
quired, with a minimum of 15 to
20 hours per week. Most jobs are
paid.
“It is the hands-on portion of
the class where students practice
and hone in on skills to work in,”
said Glen Farris, director of the
co-op grant. “Students really ben
efit from that.” Every week,
the students come together for a
two-hour seminar to discuss sev
eral things, including manage
ment style, resume development,
peer relations and current job-re
lated issues. “Most students want
to know why they are doing it,”
Farris said.
The grant represents 69 per
cent of the total expenditures for
the first year, and the college will
provide the other $80,731. The
grant will help improve the
school-to-work transition. By the
end of five years, Farris hopes to
see more instructors, a secretary,
a director and job-site personnel.
“We hope not to not only cen
tralize and expand our co-op of
ferings through this grant in the
coming five years, but to estab
lish a coordinated system with the
K-12 districts,” said President
John Keyser.
One of the goals Farris has
is to merge with the high schools
in region 15, the work force area
containing Clackamas County.
The region recently received
a three-year grant for school-to-
work transition training.
The college has many work
experience programs already, but
they have been administered by
individual departments.
The new plan will centralize
the areas not involved in co-op in
the county as well as make the
transition from school to college
to work easier.
It will also act as a clearing
house for prospective employers
for students.
“The irony of it is, most stu
dents are hired at the job site, so
we have to develop new jobs,”
Farris said.

A recent Molalla High
School graduate and physical
education major at Clackamas
died in a car accident Oct. 19.
According to published
sources, Justin Wood, 18, of
Molalla, was killed when the
Chevy Luv pickup he was driv
ing collided with a larger Ford
pickup driven by Andrew Ole
Ettestad, 16, also of Molalla.
The collision occurred
when Ettestad, a junior at
M.H.S., approached a curve
near the intersection of Mulino
Road and Airport Road, four
miles north of Molalla. Ettestad
was driving east on Mulino
Road at about 4:30 p.m., when
he applied his brakes and skid
ded into the westbound lane, col
liding head-on with Wood’s
pickup. Wood was taken to
Legacy Emanuel Hospital in Port
land where he died about 6:45
p.m. Ettestad was not injured in
the accident.
Wood was a multi-sport ath
lete at M.H.S., competing in soc
cer, wrestling, baseball and track.
During his senior year, Wood was
named Most Valuable Player in
soccer, both on his team and in
the league. He was named to the
all-state soccer team, and also
competed in the all-star series this
past July. Wood was district cham
pion in wrestling at 141 pounds
and went on to place sixth in the
state tournament.
Wood was well-liked among
many of his classmates. He was
voted “the friendliest senior” in
his class.

parents, Dennis and Esther of
Molalla, brothers David and
Denny of Tillamook and
Karson of Molalla, and sisters
Tara and Sophie of Molalla and
Rachelle of Tillamook.
Forsberg loans robe to college
The robe was made sometime
between 1890 and 1930 and was
made of mountain goat wool in
natural and dyed colors. Some of
the wool in the robe is twisted
with cedar bark.
This rare treasure was loaned
to the college by Mrs. Donna
Forsberg of Gladstone, who found
it in a garage sale for about $4.
When she had it appraised,
she learned that it is worth about
$12,000.
“When she saw it, she
thought it probably had some sig-
;niftcant'value,”' said her grand-
; son’ Tobias Forsberg.
The Smithsonian wanted it
on display, but she decided she
wanted it at CCC. She thinks the
college is the best thing happen
ing in the area; it provides a lot
for students.”
