The RCC board took the action at its meeting on Oct. 21. Beginning in 1971 Pete guided RCC through its tenuous first years and left his mark on the college culture. Although he re- tired in 1980, Pete contin- ues to help and serve the college, said President Rick Levine, adding that Pete clearly merits the emeritus honor. “He remains a friend of the college through regular visits and inter- views,” Levine said. A reception honoring the Pete is tentatively set for the Nov. 18 board meeting at the Medford campus. Pete lives in Wilson- ville and is working with current and past presidents to compile a history of co0mmunity colleges in Oregon. The board also ac- cepted the following grants at the meeting: *USDA Rural Utilities Services Distance learning and Telemedicine grant for $237,137 to extend the college’s interactive video capacity. *Perkins Regional vo- cational Education grant for $13,000 from the Jack- son Educational Service District for the Soutehrn Oregon Women in Trades Fair. *U.S. Army Engineer District, Portland, grant for $37, 345 for water quality monitoring studies at Lost Creek and Applegate Res- ervoirs to be conducted by RCC science students. *Gordon Elwood Foundation award of $20,000 to provide funds for low-income RCC stu- dents in short-term and workforce training em- ployment certification pro- grams. *Oregon manufactur- ing Extension partnership awards totaling $1,970 for secondary wood products training systems projects. The board also ap- proved the 2003-06 classi- fied bargaining agreement with the RCC Oregon School Employees Asso- ciation. The new three-year agreement includes a sal- ary freeze for 2003-04. Students filling seats at RCC this fall despite tuition, fee increases Parking lots are full and students are vying for classroom seats at Rogue Community College (RCC), where concerns that increasing tuition and higher fess would hurt en- rollment have not material- ized, according to Presi- dent Rick Levine. “Total enrollment is down slightly compared to a year ago, but the only reason is that we have had to cut back in our tutoring centers,” Levine said. RCC closed the Mar- ket Street Learning Center in downtown Medford and the Learning Center in Grants Pass earlier this year to economize. More than a month into the fall term, RCC officials report tuition pro- jections on target at 29 percent ($2,663,688) of the total tuition revenue pro- jected for 2003-04. “After tuition in- creases, we’re relieved about that,” said Lynda Warren, dean of College Services. 232 N.
