discuss their experiences in a
non-traditional career. A non
traditional job is defined by
the Department of Health,
Education and Welfare as an
occupation in which women
constitute less than 38 percent
of the people employed in that
particular occupation, Larson
noted.
Also scheduled to speak is
Audry Parsons, representa
tive from the Portland office
of the Bureau of Labor. Mrs.
Parsons will discuss appren
ticeship programs.
The non-traditional careers
program is new this year at
Blue Mountain. It is a project,
funded through the Oregon
Department of Education, to
promote employment opportu
nities for area women and
minorities.
Teachers
sought for
next term
Fall Evening Division clas
ses for Blue Mountain Com
munity College are into the
fourth week in cities in south
Morrow County but Nancy
Brownfield, BMCC coordina
tor for south Morrow County,
is already looking for teachers
and subjects for the winter
term.
Although the winter term
for the evening division does
not start until Jan. 7, Brown
field must have a schedule of
classes and teachers sent into
the college by Nov. 16.
Brownfield can offer eve
ning classes in Heppner,
Lexington and lone but she
likes Lexington so students
can come from both ways.
Each class needs 10 people, an
instructor and a place to meet.
Brownfield said she usually
can find the place and a
teacher but the students have
to let her know what types of
classes they want to take.
"If someone wants a special
class, I need to know as soon
as possible so I can get things
ready," Brownfield said.
She also is interested in
finding teachers for the winter
term.
"Anyone who would like to
teach can," she said. "No
teaching certificate is re
quired. Only a desire and
expertise in an area is
required. Any subject matter
can be taught from arts and
crafts to electronics."
Brownfield said beginning
teachers are usually paid
about $8 an hour for work
directly with the students.
Three types of classes can be
offered. Skill upgrade classes
(like cake decorating), com
munity interest classes (like
dancing), and BMCC transfer
classes (like History).
"Teachers can apply by
contacting me and I will
interview them and send the
application to the college,"
Brownfield said. "The college
may want to screen some
teachers depending on the
course subject."
Brownfield can be contacted
by calling 676-5039.
Seminars aimed

seminars offered by Blue

Hermiston and Heppner

from 7 to 9 p.m. on the
Pendleton BMCC campus as
well as at Hermiston High
School and Heppner High
School for the first time this

Eddy, science department

sessions, but they will be
taught all three quarters in all
three areas," Eddy commen-
