Kellogg Grant FundsInternship Program

\5I (o

86th Academic Year OpensWith Convocation Challenge

A $125,000 grant to fund a newtwo-level experiential education program for students and faculty has beenawarded to George Fox College by theW. K. Kellogg Foundation.

The internship program will send upto 45 students each year into Newberg-Portland area business and industry togive students opportunity to applytheir education and career options intheir majors.

At the same time, up to five facultym e m b e r s e a c h s u m m e r w i l l a l s o e n t e rn o n a c a d e m i c w o r k fi e l d s r e l a t e d t otbeiT leaching subjects.

The W. K. Ke l logg Foundat ion,headquartered in Battle Creek, Mich.,is one of the world's largest foundations. It was established in 1930 byWill K. Kellogg, founder of the Kellogg cereal company.

The new fi^eld education program isdesigned as a major effort to relateliberal arts education directly to careerpreparation with on-the-job skills related to academic disciplines.

The "experiential education" program is believed unusual because of itsscope involving faculty with emphasison helping them to improve their advising abilities with students andbetter relate instruction to meet careerneeds while maintaining the overallcollege emphasis on liberal arts.

The program is proposed as a modelfor systematically infusing a career emphasis into liberal arts education withcontinuous feedback to the collegethrough faculty and students concerning the relevance of their education tothe world of work.

In the faculty internship programselected members will spend ten weekswith area business and industry andwill be paid monthly through the grant.They will report their findings directlyto students in campus-wide meetings,in addition to making any advising orclassroom changes.

Students will explore various careeroptions in either their junior or senioryear, developing job skills that willgive a better chance for employmentafter graduation, or perhaps part-timeand summer jobs for school financesupport.

George Fox President David LeShana said the college views the newprogram, to start immediately, as anopportunity for the college "to meet itsm o r a l c o m m i t m e n t t o t h e s t u d e n t w h olooks to the college for practical resultsof his or her training."

A community benefit is seen. It ishoped the new exchange between acad e m i c i a n s a n d b u s i n e s s l e a d e r s w i l lfoster a greater understanding of eachother. The program is also aimed atallowing business and industry to directly affect the training of its futurew o r k f o r c e .

"A college must not limit itself norbe limited by campus boundaries inproviding experiences with the greatestimpact and relevance," Le Shana said." W e b e l i e v e t h a t l i b e r a l a r t s e d u c ation includes the interaction of theoryand practice."

He said the program will provider e l e v a n c e t o t h e c a r e e r - o r i e n t e d s t udent while not forsaking the strength ofbroad training in the liberal arts. "Webelieve this will result in young peoplebeing more capable of meeting futurenational needs," Le Shana said.

A series of seminars and workshopsto build student, faculty, and administration understanding of the objectivesand procedures of the internship program are planned.

Named project director is CurtLoewen, a former academic dean andcareer education and placement director at Warner Pacific College. He is aformer agribusiness specialist with theOregon Department of Education andpreviously taught at Oregon State University, where he received a doctoratei n 1 9 7 0 .

New Residence Hall SetThe rapid student enrollment growth

at George Fox has resulted in a decision to construct another residentialhousing building. The new residencehall has been approved by the college sBoard of Trustees executive committee, and construction is to start by Jan.1 in order for a completion by nextfall, when enrollment is again expectedt o c l i m b .

The new residence hall is to belocated on the east side of Hess Creekravine, adjacent to Hobson Hall, to

complete a major new living complex.The exact costs have not been deter

mined, and the new building is still being designed by Architect DonaldLindgren.

The new building will be the thirdunder construction on the campus allat one time. Financing is to be throughthe offering of annuities, with personswishing to participate asked to contactDevelopment Director Maurice Chandl e r .

George Fox College formally marked the opening of its 86th year Oct.13 with the assistance of a nearby college president.

Robert Lisensky, president of Willamette University in Salem, wasspeaker for the 1976 Fall Convocationprogram held in Hester Gymnasium.A former Methodist minister, Lisenskysaid the emphasis in collegiate education "should be that of sharpening thehuman attributes of imagination, intuition, and a gift of continually questioning."

In his address, "The Value Crisisand Higher Education," Lisensky saidthe goals of education should be todevelop student attitudes conducive tothe survival of human civilization, thee s t a b l i s h m e n t o f a n a w a r e n e s s a n d

sensitivity to the world and its large-scale problems, and the developmentof social and political skills to applyt h e a t t i t u d e s a n d s e n s i t i v i t i e s .

"Our moment in history calls forunique, creative thinking that is capable of engaging in revolutionary restructuring of our social system,"Lisensky said.

Lisensky, a former vice-president foracademic affairs at Ohio WesleyanUniversity, has been president of Willamette since 1973. He told his GeorgeFox audience to make choices betweenfreedom and restraint, between personal greed and public dedication, andbetween material and spiritual satisfact i o n . "

" W e m u s t c u l t i v a t e c o n s c i e n c e a n dsentiment as well as content and process," Lisensky said.

The speaker said the challenge tohigher education is "to prepare personsto live responsively in the new societyand said there is a need to teach students to v iew the wor ld as a wholewith minds that have the skill of relating one thing to another in their interrelationships.

The convocation program was theo f fi c i a l w e l c o m e t o m o r e t h a n 3 0 0 n e wstudents at George Fox. PresidentDavid Le Shana presided, along withacademic dean, William Green. Theprogram also honored recipients anddonors of scholarships to GFC stud e n t s .

Revised Schedule BringsEarly Starts Chapel Change

Yawns and a rubbing of eyes is thesituation for some as George Fox students begin their class days this year.

The start of the first class has beenadvanced to 7:45 from the 8 a.m.start of previous years.

The shift is part of a major classtime change that provides for 10 classslots a day, running until 6:05 p.m.

The class schedule alteration wasmade at the suggestion of the registrar's office and the Academic PolicyC o m m i t t e e .

With the switch in times there arenow two double periods before lunchbreak in place of the previous three50-minute-pcriod arrangement.

Because of the new schedule thereare other changes. Threc-day-a-weekchapel programs formerly held at 11a .m . now s ta r t a t 9 : 40 and run t o10:25 a.m. Monday, Wednesday andFriday. The Tuesday and Thursdaytime periods will remain unscheduledwith classes, allowing campus meetingtimes for faculty and students.

There is a reduced time to changeclasses, from 10 minutes in the mornings, to 5 minutes. But the chapelperiod, by being pushed earlier in themorning, is designed to be a break ini t s e l f . T h e r e a l s o w i l l b e o n e 1 0 -minute break in the afternoon, from3:15 to 3:25 p.m.

The new schedule also spreads twoclasses over the noon hour, from 11:30a.m. to 12:20 p.m. and 12:25 to 1:15p.m. In a corresponding move, diningcommons hours have been lengthened,a step necessary because of the changeand because of increased enrollment,which requires more students to eat inthe same cafeteria space.

Registrar Harvey Campbell, one ofthe originators of the new class schedule change, says it means a betterutilization of classes and labs, especially because of the two double periods inthe morning.

The new schedule was endorsed bythe college's Academic Committee,Dean's Council, and faculty.

spending an average of $64.94 amonth or $519 a year wi th localmerchants. With a 6 percent inflationrise and 620 students this fall, spending is predicted to reach more than$340,000, a total jump of 18 percentor $51,000.

Added to a payroll for faculty andstaff of $1.2 million and direct collegespending of $500,000, the college during the next fiscal year should giveNewberg an economic boost of moret h a n $ 2 m i l l i o n .

The total economic impact is upnearly one third over a 1974 estimateof $1.5 mi l l ion.

The student-spending survey involved questioning of 20 percent ofthe college's students. They were askedto complete a 2-page, 28-point questionnaire that specifically asked forNewberg city spending, eliminating on-campus purchases or buying in hometowns or in the Portland area.

GFC students during the last yearspent just over $26,000 a month during their eight-month college stay. Thebulk of that sending went for foodand transportation.

Surveyed students say they average$9.50 a month for food purchaseddirectly from supermarkets and foodstores, excluding snacks and restaurants. That amounts to $5,282 amonth for all students and $42,256 tolocal food outlets during the year.

Restaurants and drive-ins supplystudents with $22,603 worth of food

a year or $2,825 a month. Studentssay they spend $5.08 a month forsnacks and eating out, $40.64 a year.

Close behind is expenditure for gasoline and oil products. Students in thesurvey said they spend an average of$8.05 monthly or $64.40 a year. Thatbrings service stations an average of$4,478 a month or $35,820 a yearfrom George Fox students. Auto repair parts cost students an average of$13.20 a year. That means $919 amonth or $7,359 a year to local autoparts dealers.

Next most costly to students is thecost of keeping themselves with schoolsupplies and buying gifts. They reportspending $4.76 a month ($38.08 a

year). That means local merchantstake in $2,648 a month or $21,188 ayear keeping the students supplied.

Wood Block Has Ties to Nation's HistoryOregon is noted for its wood, and

plenty of it. But a piece arriving atGeorge Fox is receiving some specialc a r e a n d a t t e n t i o n .

The tiny piece of live oak wood isgaining special notice in this bicentennial year because it's part of Americanhistory and an incident that set up the1 7 7 6 r e v o l u t i o n .

The piece of wood is a part of aship that brought the tea that wasdumped into Boston Harbor in theBoston Tea Party in 1773.

A gift of Milo Ross, the tiny scrapof wood has been "passed down to thefamily over the years," he says. Ross,former president of the college from1954 to 1969 and now heading theGeorge Fox College Foundation, sayshe recently received the piece from hismother, Carrie B. Prince Ross, a Newberg resident who recently rediscovered it among her belongings.

Ross, who has given the ship pieceto the George Fox's Shambaugh Library for public display, says it's notn o w k n o w n h o w t h e h i s t o r i c t r e a s u r e

originally was acquired by family ancestors. He says the two-inch by one-inch block of wood was brought toOregon in 1891 by his great grandfather, Lewis Freeman Bradford, whoc a m e t o t h e s t a t e f r o m M a i n e .

On a scrap of cardboard tied to thewood is a note in Bradford 's handwriting: "This piece of wood wastaken out of the vessel that brought thetea into Boston Harbor at the time ofthe Tea Party in 1773."

The Tea Party occurred Dec. 16 ofthat year as about 60 men dressed asIndians boarded the tea ships and tossed the chests of tea into the harbor asan act of defiance of the British Parliament, which had enacted a tax onthe tea.

The exact history of the wood givento the college is not known. Historicalnarratives say three ships, the Dart-mough, the Eleanor, and the Beaver,were carrying the tea cargo for theEast India Company.

After the tea was dumped, theBritish retaliated by closing the harbor,abolishing town meetings, and settingvarious penal regulations, all of whichfurther enraged the colonists causingfurther rebellions and the establishment 200 years ago of the UnitedStates.
