Thur».. Mar 16. 1978 (Sec 2) SANOV (Ore.) ROST - 3 • • Vo-tech panel finds space, equipm ent problem s at MHCC by Patty Farrell staff reporter programs, making structural changes and considering the need for a new vo- tech building ” “ A new building is not our first priority,** said Glenn Otto, commission member “ Our first priority is to make better use of existing space. Some programs might be moved to a d if ferent end of campus” The most critical space shortages listed by the com m ittee include graphics, photography, radio station- lab, com m unications, electronics storage, office machine repair and forestry. Others are civil engineering, in dustrial service, automotive, industrial storage, early childhood education and outdoor lab for apprenticeship. Mt. Hood Community College has serious space deficiencies and outdated classroom equipment in its vocational and technical program s, a study commission told the district board Wednesday. The board voted to hire a consultant to advise the college on problems found by the commission of district residents. Members told President Steve Nicholson.to report back to the com- ônttee by Oct. 1. The commission, which has studied the program s for three months, recommended “ a lle v ia tin g space d eficien cies” by “ reloca tin g some Community advisory committees for each program w ill recommend equipment the college should purchase to replace outdated equipment found by the committee, Nicholson said The committee found “ equipment in too many areas is becoming outdated and in some cases inoperable or con stantly being repaired.” Requirements listed are both new and replacement needs The programs most in need of new equipm ent include photography, graphics, television, radio, food science, funeral services and fisheries. Others are h o rtic u ltu re , office machine re p a ir, c iv il engineering, d ra ftin g , fo re stry, o ffice ad ministration and electronics. Nicholson plans to hire space con sultants from outside the college to coordinate the vo-tech report with raw data from a space study made last fall and recommend reorganization and construction. “ We need an outsider who can look at the problem s o b je c tiv e ly ,” said Nicholson. He added that the specialists can compare Mt. Hood space allocation to national norms for community colleges The consultant report should be compiled by June 1 so the college can im plem ent some of the recom mendations this summer, said the president. Money for any changes, including construction, is already budgeted. Nicholson added that faculty will have to keep up-to-date on new techniques in each field in order to effectively teach vocational technical programs A d ditional sta ffin g was recom mended in the automotive, floristry and welding programs. Nicholson said the budget does not allow for hiring more staff but that part-time staff could become full-time. Board members agreed with the commission that more courses should be offered at less traditional times. “ I'd like to get my associate degree,” said Don Staudenmier, commission chairman “ Under the present system there’s no way I can do it. We need ew»^ more classes at nights and on weekends ” The commission advised against discontinuing any programs and said more vocational technical programs should be initiated The report warned “ programs should have continuous appraisal as to their need, job op portunity, enrollment, currency and costs. ” Students should be provided with more in fo rm a tio n about course requirements and expectations, said the commission. Programs can be improved, it said, if the college pursues a more effective follow-up on students after they leave the college. * SERVICE WITH SINCERITY Sandy students plan career day attendance More than 2000 high school students from Clackamas County w ill participate in Career Day at Clackamas C om m unity College Wed nesday and Thursday, March 15 and 16.
