RCC founding president
honored for his efforts
The Rogue Commu-
nity College (RCC) Board
of Education appointed
Henry Pete, founding
president of RCC, presi-
dent emeritus, an honorary
title granted in recognition
of outstanding service.
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.
