(continued from page 1) Through his professiona! career he has held many positions in various schools throughout this state and Oregon. He has taught inschools in Nespelem and Garfield, Wa. He was the high school principal in Garfield for four years. He then went to Lake Oswego, Ore., where he was a high school counselor and psychology teacher. After two years at Lake Oswego, he went to IVSU to obtain his doctorate. and was a teaching assistant. After he finished his course work he came to Highline. He received his doctorate after a year here. His first position at HCCwas that of counselor, in 1965. Then, one year later hebecame registrar/admissions officer. After four years at that job he acquired his position as assistant dean of academic programs. When asked why he chose Highline for his nextjob, McFarland said he wanted to get into community college education. "Iknew it was a growing area,would be an interesting area, and would be expanding in years ahead," he said. Highline atthat time was expanding rapidly, he commented. "Ilike the area verymuch - Ireally enjoy the mountains and the Sound. I do wish thatit wouldn't grow so rapidly to spoil itself," he said. "It took me a year to get used to the rain, though it doesn't bother me now," he said, adding that rain is preferable to the snow which graces his native in Eastern Washington during the winter. His hobbies include photography, woodworking and mountaineering. He has climbed mountains Rainier, Adams and Saint Helens. When asked about what major prob- lemsor changes hemay encounter with his new permanent position, McFarland said that a major problem would be whether or not the college A LAWRENCE GORDON / BURT REYNOLDS Productiotl will be able to grow to meet the needs BURT REYNOLDSin of this area.
