FROM THE PRESIDENT

Great things are happening at Rogue Community College. Were developing the tools and momentum to positively impact the areas economic growth, working harder and more innovatively to provide citizens and students with the necessary skills and training to succeed. The following are a few initiatives were working on through the RCC Foundation.
Science and allied health technology expansion
Health-related careers are a rapidly growing opportunity for RCC students in Jackson and Josephine counties. Every year approximately 125 students graduate from allied health programs, move into the workforce and begin their careers. Regional health care providers have unfilled positions, and the demand is growing. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics expects employment in these occupations to grow by 35 percent in the next 10 years. RCC already offers allied health care programs in dental assisting, clinical lab assistant, physical therapy assistant, occupational therapy assistant, nursing assistant, emergency medical technology/ paramedic, massage therapy, and fitness technician, as well as professional health careers in nursing and pre-med. With state support in the form of an $8 million matching grant and funding from the Department of Labor, RCC is expanding its allied health offerings to meet demand in areas identified by local providers. (See story on page 2.)

ties, including music and theater productions. Its natural, green hillside setting can be improved with tiered seating, new lighting and electrical fixtures, a modern stage and high-grade sound equipment, attracting more usage and larger productions.
Justice Training and Education Center (JTEC)
A state-of-the-art training center will help RCC expand its criminal justice programs and prepare students for a multitude of careers in public safety. The center would accommodate physical combat training, computer labs, and simulation labs.
Increased scholarships and endowments
Developing new funding and additional scholarship resources will allow RCC to secure stateof-the-art equipment for high-cost programs, especially in science and high technology. Stable funding also will enable RCC to cultivate and recruit top-notch instructors while providing necessary scholarships to students seeking financial aid. Watch for more details on these and other initiative designed to spur economic development and provide our community with more opportunities. Great things are happening at RCC. Sincerely,
A flexible technology lab with high-bay shop spaces and moveable walls is an opportunity to strengthen and grow partnerships with manufacturers such as the Heavy-Lift Helicopter Consortium and solar/renewable energy companies. It also would allow RCC to expand its automotive, diesel, electronics, welding and apprenticeship programs, providing the right training for the right people at the right time.

systems to benefit
Rogue Community College will receive $8 million in state capital construction bonds an award that will boost regional job training, economic development, and health care. These funds will help RCC further develop our allied health and science programs and will result in more people trained for skilled jobs and a healthier economy, said RCC President Peter Angstadt. Approved by the Oregon Legislature, the funds will be used to upgrade and expand RCC allied health and science facilities at the colleges three campuses in Jackson and Josephine counties, increasing lab and classroom space and purchasing new equipment. In order to receive $8 million from the state, the college will be required to raise $8 million in matching funds. Its important to continue our work to secure a financial commitment of local dollars to match the state grant, which will require the full support of everyone in our region, Angstadt said. The total $16 million project will play a vital role in local economic

development by training an estimated 460 students in the first three years of operation with student enrollment projected to grow in each of the following five years. The funds also will allow RCC to expand partnerships with hospitals and other local and regional health providers. The Legislatures principle in providing capital construction bonds is economic development and training for high-demand jobs, according to President Angstadt. We anticipate 460 graduates from health care programs over a threeyear period, employed in essential allied health careers, which will provide an additional $16 million to regional private payrolls, he noted. RCC currently offers allied health care programs in such areas as dental assisting, nursing assistant, and emergency medical technology. Every year, approximately 125 students graduate from these programs, move into the workforce and begin their careers and the demand is growing. RCC also offers professional health care training including nursing, pre-dental hygiene, pre-medical imaging, and pre-medicine programs (dentistry, medicine, optometry, pharmacy, and veterinary). We continually have many more applicants than we have space to accommodate, Angstadt explained. In 2012, our dental assistant program had more than 50 applicants for just 24 slots, and every seat in our nursing assistant class filled within minutes after registration opened. Due to space and staff limitations, we are able to offer training for only 10 of the 26 highest-demand health care occupations, he added. Employment in the health care sector is strong and provides a good opportunity for RCC graduates. Health care providers in the area have unfilled positions, and the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics expects employment in these occupations to grow by 35 percent in
RCCs allied health programs will train hundreds of students over the next three years.
the next decade. Locally, the state Employment Department reports the number of jobs available in allied health fields in Jackson and Josephine counties will grow an average of 22 percent between 2010 and 2020. Currently, approximately 90 percent of RCC students find jobs in their career area within six to nine months of graduation. All these factors point to a tremendous demand in our area and the nation for qualified health care graduates, Angstadt said. In response to this escalating need, we have worked with a local consortium of health care employers to develop a response. The result is a proposal to expand our allied health programs to increase the number of students we can accept and add programs in areas identified by local providers as having the greatest need, he explained.
In order to achieve these goals and position ourselves for future growth, expansion and upgrades to our health and science facilities, labs and classroom spaces are necessary, Angstadt concluded. RCCs plan is to phase in expansion beginning with programs for Certified Nursing Assistant Acute Care and Clinical Laboratory Assistant. Rogue also has entered agreements with two other Oregon community colleges to give students training opportunities in physical therapy and occupational therapy assistant programs. The college also has plans to provide training for highly skilled positions in many other areas and is working with industry partners to build a 50,000-square-foot flexible technology lab. A $500,000 state matching grant, already in hand,
would be used to develop the flex tech lab: high-bay shop spaces with moveable walls that would allow quick reconfiguration for different types of training. The labs design also would make it easier to add new programs quickly as demand arises. We are working with employers to develop the skilled employees they need to succeed, Angstadt said. We are creating the right training for the right people at the right time.

Morris Family Foundation wins RCCs Outstanding Citizen Award
he Morris Family Foundation received the Rogue Community College 2013 Outstanding Citizen Award. Given in appreciation of the hundreds of student scholarships the foundation has provided over the years, the award was accepted by Gary Rosenberger, chair of the Morris Family Foundation Board of Directors, and by board member Eric Lieder. Since being established in 2006, the Morris Family Foundation has given more than $1.9 million dollars in scholarship support to RCC students through the RCC Foundation. Nearly 320 students have received approximately 350 scholarships for over 20 different majors, said RCC President Peter Angstadt in presenting the award June 15 at RCCs 42nd annual commencement. These scholarships have allowed high school students access to college, which allows them to
earn RCC certificates and credentials toward degrees before they complete high school, he told the audience. Upwards of 200 Morris Family Scholarship recipients have continued their education at RCC, and over 100 others have gone on to other community colleges or fouryear colleges, he added. The Morris Family Foundation provides three scholarship funds: The Earl Morris Scholarship aids RCC students who attended any public Jackson County high school in pursuing a career and technical certificate or degree. The LaRue Morris Scholarship is awarded to students graduating from Butte Falls, Crater, Eagle Point and Rogue River high school pursuing a career and technical certificate or degree.
The John and Lillian Morris Scholarship is for students currently attending Butte Falls, Crater, Eagle Point and Rogue River high schools who also enroll in RCC career and technical programs, earning both high school and college-level credits. The funding pays for students courses and materials and has even funded the cost of transporting students from their high schools to RCC.
RCCs annual Outstanding Citizen Award was initiated in 1987 by the RCC Board of Education to honor those who have provided distinguished service to the college and its community. Past recipients were Alan DeBoer, 2006; Dean and DonnaJean Wendle, 2007; Bob and Barbara Bean, 2008; Mark Knouff, 2009; Dick Rudisile, 2010, Dr. David Trump, 2011; and Glen E. Guttormsen, 2012.
Amanda Holbrooks road to success began at RCC

CC is where it all started for Amanda Holbrook. If it werent for Rogue, I dont know where Id be. Now I have all these hopes and dreams for my future, she said. Holbrook, who graduated in 2009 from RCC, went on to Southern Oregon University, graduating in December 2011, and is now pursuing a masters degree in social work at Portland State University. Speaking about her life now and her goals for the future, Holbrook expresses her gratitude. Thank you, RCC, for keeping true to your mission, she said. Before attending Rogue, Holbrook worked two years at a Medford manufacturing plant. I realized I wasnt getting anywhere with no benefits and no career goals, she recalled. But I had a lot of fear around having dropped out of high school. I wasnt sure I could handle a university. The small classes and one-on-one interactions with instructors and counselors at RCC put her at ease. Holbrooks goal is to do social work in the medical field, so I can give back to the community, she said.
Taking RCC workshops on scholarship writing and interview skills also paid off when Holbrook received a Ford Family Foundation scholarAmanda Holbrook ship, providing up to The best thing about $10,000 a year for her RCC was gaining confidence in undergraduate education. And by myself and an academic foundation maintaining a 3.6 GPA, she has in writing, math, social studies, said Holbrook, who graduated with remained eligible for the same support during graduate school. a 3.7 GPA. I felt very prepared for SOU. She also settled on a career. Being a student worker in the RCC Counseling Department provided me with strong role models who are professional and compassionate, she explained. While continuing her studies at PSU, she works at OnTrack Addiction Recovery Programs where she advocates for RCC with clients.
I tell them Rogues a great place to start rebuilding their lives.

Fire engine gives students hands-on training tool
ogue Community College students preparing for firefighting careers have a new piece of equipment in their training toolbox. The RCC Emergency Services Department recently purchased a 1993 Pierce Arrow fire engine from the Medford Rural Fire Protection District for $15,000. A comparable new engine would cost more than $500,000, according to Gary Heigel, chair of the RCC Emergency Services Department. Considered surplus equipment by
the Medford fire department, the engine reflects current public safety standards and will allow RCC students to train on equipment similar to that found in the field. The purchase was made possible through the support of the RCC Foundation, the Pacific Power Foundation, and the Medford Fire Department. I am excited about this fire engine and what it adds to our program, Heigel said, and I am very proud of the partnerships we have built. We are effectively preparing our
students for exciting and productive careers while meeting the needs of our community. RCC has a long history of partnering with emergency services organizations throughout the Rogue Valley. Through intergovernmental agreements, RCC students benefit from the use of training facilities and equipment at Grants Pass Fire, Medford Fire, and numerous Jackson County fire districts. And internship programs at several local fire departments give students the opportunity to apply their skills

while continuing their education. In the last two years, the RCC Fire Science program has been significantly expanded and improved in response to community needs and at the request of the Rogue Valley Fire Chief Association. Curriculum for degrees and certificates was updated, new courses were added, new equipment has been purchased, and the Emergency Medical Services and Fire Science departments were merged to better integrate these programs. Fire Science instructors have
partnered with other RCC departments, including Construction, Automotive Technology, and Welding to build fire training props that simulate the unique challenges of fighting fires in houses, cars, dumpsters, and natural gas lines. And because numerous Fire Science classes now include live fire training, students are better prepared when they graduate. Firefighters, EMTs, and paramedics provide critical services in our communities and these careers provide good pay and excellent
benefits, Heigel stated. The education, skills, and qualifications that students obtain at RCC prepare them very well for this highly competitive field.
Two new RCC Board of Education members elected

Ron Fox and Brett Johnson were recently elected to the RCC Board of Education. Fox is the executive director of Southern Oregon Regional Economic Development, Inc. (SOREDI), and Johnson is a police lieutenant with the Medford Police Department. Rogue Community College will continue to be the key educational and technical training asset for our current and future workforce in Southern Oregon Fox said. I know our existing as well as future businesses will look to RCC for their ready-to-work employees a role RCC is poised to provide. A near life-long Oregonian raised in Grants Pass and a graduate of the Oregon State University Business School, Fox spent 30plus years with one of the Pacific Northwests leading utilities, PacifiCorp, before retiring in 2000. The day after leaving PacifiCorp, he put his years of experience in local and regional economic development to work as the manager of business and trade development with Oregons Economic Development Department. After nearly six years with the department, Fox joined SOREDI. As executive director, he has led the award-winning organization to excellence in all aspects of its mission. And as a member of the Southern Oregon Regional Workforce Partnership, Fox has identified and improved the workforce skills needed by the areas manufacturing and traded sector businesses. A veteran who served in the U.S. Navy in Vietnam, Fox and his wife Paulie live in Medford. Johnson grew up in the Central Point area, attending District 6 schools and graduating from Crater High School. He believes in the bridge RCC provides from local high schools to successful careers in Southern Oregon and beyond. He has worked in law enforcement for 26 years, beginning his career in the U.S. Army as a military policeman in Germany in 1987. He worked for the Oregon Department of Corrections (Santiam Correctional Institution) from 1990 through 1992, then for the Department of Veterans Affairs in White City as a police officer. In 1995, he was hired by the Medford Police Department where he has served as an investigator, corporal, sergeant, and now as a lieutenant. He is the division commander for the Medford Area Drug and Gang Enforcement team. Johnson graduated from the FBI National Academy in 2012 and received a certificate in criminal justice from the University of Virginia. He also holds a bachelors degree in business administration and an MBA, both from Corban University.

GPHS teen recommends driver training

ent than you think, he explained. Among the skills he learned is better steering. I used to turn using hand-over-hand steering, Sharp explained, but Dennis cured me of that. Hand-over-hand steering causes drivers to cross their arms while turning. Their hands are more likely Brendan Sharp to slip off the steering wheel leading to a collision or drifting off the road. Instead, RCC trainees are taught push-pull steering. Sharp also learned to use targeting, a technique that involves consciously picking an object or spot a few hundred feet ahead of the driver and aligning the car with that object.
or many teens, turning 16 is a high point in life. With it comes new found freedom often in the form of a drivers license. RCC Driver Training helps teens acquire the knowledge and skills they need to become safe, responsible drivers. And if you ask Brendan Sharp of Grants Pass, driver education really makes a difference. Sharp, 16, took driver training at RCC over the summer. A Grants Pass High School football and track athlete, Sharp wanted to learn the rules of the road before driving on his own. After successfully completed 30 hours of classroom training and 12 hours of in-car training with instructor Dennis Emerich, Sharp says hes a better driver. There are so many things you think you know, but its a lot differ-
I would recommend this class to other teens, Sharp said, whose brother also took the training. RCC has provided driver training to teens for more than 15 years and currently offers classes year-round in Josephine and Jackson counties. For more information about upcoming classes, call 541-956-7116 or visit www.rccdrivered.com.
Degree completion think of it as a safety net

Each year I meet with hundreds of students to help them plan and move toward their college goals. Recently, however, Ive seen an increase in students returning to college after a prolonged absence who are just a few courses away from completing their degrees or certificates. Why are they coming back now? Because they need that degree or certificate on their resumes, they need to get that next pay raise, and they want proof they can do it. One student I met with recently returned to RCC just five courses shy of an Associate of General Studies degree. Hed been so eager to attend university that he left RCC before completing. But life happened, and he couldnt afford to continue at university. Hes worked at his job many years but has been passed up for several promotions because he lacked a degree. Another returning student stopped out when she was hired for a decent paying job based on her completed course knowledge. But when the economy collapsed, she was let go and now notices most jobs require at least an associates degree. She needs just seven courses to complete an Associate of Applied Science Business Technology degree. Students should think of degree completion as a safety net: If I complete this degree and something unexpected happens, I have a back-up plan. Other students take one or two courses to meet a minimum criterion for their job, but what if they continued their studies and completed a degree or certificate? Completion is a bargaining chip; it opens the doors to opportunity. Life does happen, and preparing for the unexpected is a smart choice. If you have completed courses at a college but havent earned a degree or certificate, I encourage you to come back to RCC and reset your goal. The benefits can be monumental. Michelle Gray, RCC Counselor
Rogue Scholar on the road to career in science

oseph Koscts passion for science has led him on a journey toward a new career as a materials scientist. Kosct, who never completed high school and only recently earned a GED, set off on his road to success with the help of Joseph Kosct the Rogue Community College Foundation, which awarded him the Rogue Scholars Scholarship. The $2,500 scholarship is given annually to the top-scoring applicant among those seeking RCC Foundation scholarships. Funds for the award are provided in their entirety by the RCC Foundation Board. Having never completed high school was like a dark cloud hanging over my head, Kosct said in his scholarship essay. The contradiction I felt, telling my children how important education was, having never completed the process myself, was unbearable. I have to admit learning how to sit still for hours at a time was a challenge at first, said Kosct, who worked in the construction industry from 1988 to 2011. But by employing the same effort he put into construction, showing up on time and doing what was in front of me, he earned a GED in fall 2011, achieving scores that placed him in the top 2 percent in the nation. After completing his GED, Kosct began working towards an Associate of Arts/Oregon Transfer degree at RCC with the aim of transferring to Southern Oregon University. He plans to enroll in the materials science bachelors degree program, which integrates physics, chemistry, mathematics, and engineering. Kosct has been interested in science since his early youth. As an adult, he combined his passion for problem solving with a gift for creative thinking, and with his construction skills, helped others to see their dreams become reality. He hopes those skills, combined with his education, will lead him to be successful in a new capacity. I will be able to use these tools to help advance scientific areas such as recycling, nanotechnology and fuel alternatives the possibilities are endless! Kosct says hes learned he can accomplish whatever he sets out to do. I am capable of reaching any goal I put my mind to, he explained, remembering that a person can eat an elephant by simply taking one bite at a time.
Season your life with SALT

Rogue Community College recently took a giant step toward helping students be more financially savvy when navigating college costs. RCC has contracted with SALT, a financial literacy and default prevention program offered in partnership with American Student Assistance. Starting fall term, RCC began encouraging students and alumni to sign up for services at www.SALTmoney.org. The aim is to engage students in learning how to manage their money and make wise financial choices. The average college student will spend approximately $15,000 over the course of three years to earn an associates degree at RCC. Many students qualify for financial aid that helps pay for tuition, fees and books. But many borrow to help subsidize their living costs, and more 10
than 29 percent of those who took out a loan while attending RCC in recent years have defaulted on that debt. Thats where SALT comes in. Free to RCC students and alumni, membership allows users to opt into confidential money-related information and services such as newsletters, financial blogs, budgeting tools, debt repayment counseling, multi-media money savvy tips, a toll-free member-support hot line and more all from an impartial advocate. Some of SALTs online features include: money management basics, starting a career, repaying student loan debt, bill paying, and loan management.

Rocio Jiminez
They met in English as a Second Language classes at Rogue Community College and developed a bond based on shared interests and values: family, honesty, education, and hard work. Here, in their own words, they share their experience at RCC and their new-found friendship.
I came here 12 years ago from Mexico City to be more secure and for the best life for my kids. I have been taking ESL classes for three years and credit vocational ESL and Early Childhood Education classes for one and a half years. My goal is to get my pre-school Child Development Associate (credential) in English this year. I already have it in Spanish. Ive worked 11 years in the childcare field. I would like to work in a school as a teacher where I can use my child development and bilingual skills. I am so proud of my kids. My son graduated from North Medford High School in 2011. He is working and taking RCC classes. My daughter is a senior at North Medford High School and is an excellent student. She is working as well. They are very responsible kids. During the school year, my husband works at Oregon Childhood Development Coalition, and in the summer he volunteers at Kids Unlimited. I think ESL class at RCC is the best part of my life here in the U.S. In ESL class I found my sister, Kathy, and a lot of friends from different cultures like China, Indonesia, and South Korea. Because of ESL classes, I am more comfortable, more sure. Now I can be in any situation. For more information about ESL classes at RCC, call the RCC Learning Center: 541-245-7701 in Medford; 541-245-7820 in White City; 541-956-7253 in Grants Pass; and 541-956-7455 in the Illinois Valley.

I came here two years ago from Iran for my childrens education. My son will be a junior in Ashland High School. My daughter was taking ESL classes at RCC with me and is now in Adult Basic Education and credit classes. English classes at RCC have helped me a lot. I have more confidence living in my new culture, and I have found new friends. I met Rocio, who is my best friend like a sister. Sometimes we need to talk with our hands or look up a word on the iPad, but we understand each other. We invite each other to our homes with our families. Recently, I started working at Qzeen Armenian Deli and Cafe in Medford. I speak English with the customers. My future plans with my family are not definite, but one idea is to open a bakery with Iranian food.

FLEXIBLE TECHNOLOGY AT RCC
ogue Community College currently offers more than 70 Career and Technical Education programs. Each is designed to meet local industry needs and is customized to keep pace with technology; therefore always providing the most in-demand skills for students and southern Oregons employers. There is an escalating demand for skilled workers in our region; enrollment in career and technical courses has increased 79% in the last 5 years and employment in manufacturing and technology currently account for 8% of jobs in Jackson County and 10% in Josephine County. To meet student and industry demand, RCC is planning to build a state-of-the-art facility to provide the necessary training our region requires. Designed with southern Oregons small and medium businesses in mind, the RCC Flexible Technology Lab will give us the ability to respond to the regions need for a skilled workforce, ongoing short-term training, and increasing student demand for career and technical education. Joining Together to Meet the Need Please join us in meeting our regions demand. Your contribution to RCCs Flexible Technology Lab Initiative will help local manufacturing and technology businesses increase the quality of their workforce, attract new businesses to our area, and help RCC students train for rewarding careers. Most importantly, your gift will contribute to our communitys economic strength.
RCC allows businesses throughout the area to improve the quality of their workforce. Without a quality workforce, we cannot attract and maintain quality businesses.
Bill Thorndike, President Medford Fabrication
