Cline.
“Finger food will be served.”
There will be guided tours
of the building led by members
of the speech team. Visitors
will be able to see students
from the various departments
practicing in the new facili
ties. They will also hear music
students perform.
“We’ll be out here rehears
ing with the choir,” said
Lonnie Cline.
“People can
come observe what we do.”
Theater
students
will
rehearse in the Osterman
Theatre, and there will even be
an art exhibit in the Alexander
Gallery.

librarian dies
Donald Vorderstrasse, retired reference librarian for Clackamas
Community College, died Oct. 10 at age 70.
Vbrderstrasse, a native Oregonian who spoke fluent German,
started at Clackamas as an acquisition librarian in September
of 1971, and retired in 1996. Acquisitions Coordinator Bonnie
McCloud remembers him as “a real gentleman.”
“He was always impeccably dressed,” McCloud said. “He
was well-liked by everybody.”
Vorderstrasse earned a Master of Library Science degree from
OSU. His love of knowledge and his innate inquisitiveness were
infectious, and he was always sharing with others.
“Don was such an important part of our faculty because
he was a person with such an intense curiosity,” said Rene
Zingarelli, former associate dean for the Extended Learning
Services Division and Vorderstrasse’s former supervisor. “I
remember times he would be looking up some information, and
he would be so delighted to share that information ... both with
students and with other faculty and staff.”
Vorderstrasse worked his last two years at the college in the
Dye Learning Center. He is remembered as someone who was
always supportive of others’ quests for knowledge.
“He was just a wonderful man,” said McCloud. “[He was]
very helpfill to the staff and to the students.”
“Another thing I remember about Don is that he had an infec
tious smile,” said Zingarelli. “He was just genuinely kind.”
