Acquisition Information Acquired in 1976 from the Office of Ombudsman. Processing History Processed by Mary Ellen Goddard and Madelyn Kim in January, 1993. Organizational History The Office of Innovation in Student Life began in May 1967 when Dr. Jack Little was hired as Assistant to the Vice Chancellor of Student Affairs for Co-Curricular Learning. The position of Ombudsman was created within the Office of Innovation in Student Life, and Little served in this role as student advocate and counsellor at large on the campus, and to work to resolve grievances. The name of the office was changed in 1973 to Office of the Ombudsman. The cases handled by the ombudsman and the Office of Innovation in Student Life ranged from personal problems such as with the selective service to academic and administrative problems. Little was given a free hand, but at first, no office, so he met with students in their territory-generally the snack bar. He was eventually assigned an office, and a part-time student work force. The position of ombudsman was a new one in schools, cities and organizations at this time and Little, with support of ombudsmen at San Diego State, hosted the first meeting of what became an ongoing association of practicing campus ombudsmen in California. At the University of California, Irvine, Little encouraged students to be apprentice ombudsmen. Volunteer ombudsmen were trained and served with token pay. In 1970, a formal course for ombudsmen was sponsored in the Program in Social Ecology. 1967 · In May, Dr. Jack Little is hired as Assistant to the Vice Chancellor of Student Affairs for Co-Curricular Learning. 1973 · Name of the office is changed to Office of the Ombudsman. 1973 · Ernestine Ransom becomes Acting Ombudsman. 1978 · R. Ronald Wilson is appointed Ombudsman, reporting to the Assistant Vice Chancellor, Student Affairs. 1982 · University hierarchy is restructured, and Wilson reports to the Vice Chancellor (called the Executive Vice Chancellor after 1985). 1999 · Kathleen H. Canul is named University Ombudsman.

Harris in Chicago Illinois on Feb. 23, 1905. The first meeting was held in Room 711 of the Unity Building. Four prospective members attended that first meeting. From there Rotary spread immediately to San Francisco California, and on November 12, 1908 Club # 2 was chartered. From San Francisco, Homer Woods, the founding President, went on to start clubs in Oakland and in 1909 traveled to southern California and founded the Rotary Club of Los Angeles (LA 5) In 1914, at a fellowship meeting of 6 western Rotary Clubs H. J. Brunnier, Presi- dent of the Rotary Club of San Francisco, awoke in the middle of the night with the concept of Rotary Districts. He summoned a porter to bring him a railroad sched- ule of the United States, which also included a map of the USA, and proceeded to map the location of the 100 Rotary clubs that existed at that time and organized them into 13 districts.

  • Three Chumash-Style Pictograph Sites in Fernandeño Territory
    THREE CHUMASH-STYLE PICTOGRAPH SITES IN FERNANDEÑO TERRITORY ALBERT KNIGHT SANTA BARBARA MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY There are three significant archaeology sites in the eastern Simi Hills that have an elaborate polychrome pictograph component. Numerous additional small loci of rock art and major midden deposits that are rich in artifacts also characterize these three sites. One of these sites, the “Burro Flats” site, has the most colorful, elaborate, and well-preserved pictographs in the region south of the Santa Clara River and west of the Los Angeles Basin and the San Fernando Valley. Almost all other painted rock art in this region consists of red-only paintings. During the pre-contact era, the eastern Simi Hills/west San Fernando Valley area was inhabited by a mix of Eastern Coastal Chumash and Fernandeño. The style of the paintings at the three sites (CA-VEN-1072, VEN-149, and LAN-357) is clearly the same as that found in Chumash territory. If the quantity and the quality of rock art are good indicators, then it is probable that these three sites were some of the most important ceremonial sites for the region. An examination of these sites has the potential to help us better understand this area of cultural interaction. This article discusses the polychrome rock art at the Burro Flats site (VEN-1072), the Lake Manor site (VEN-148/149), and the Chatsworth site (LAN-357). All three of these sites are located in rock shelters in the eastern Simi Hills. The Simi Hills are mostly located in southeast Ventura County, although the eastern end is in Los Angeles County (Figure 1).

  • San Fernando Valley (Area 1) Superfund Site: Burbank
    Reuse and the Benefit to Community San Fernando Valley (Area 1) Superfund Site: Burbank Introduction During World War II, Lockheed Aircraft Company (succeeded in 1995 by Lockheed Martin Corporation) began aerospace manufacturing operations in a large complex in Burbank, Los Angeles County, California. The industry was a major employer and contributor to the war effort. Activities at these facilities as well as many other industrial facilities throughout the San Fernando Valley also contributed to groundwater contamination. The closure of the Lockheed Martin facility in 1991 presented a redevelopment opportunity, while the groundwater cleanup presented a challenge in a water-scarce region. Collaboration among EPA, Lockheed Martin, and Burbank Water and Power resulted in the cleanup of the groundwater supply. The State of California oversees the contamination source area soil remediation throughout Area 1. Today, treated groundwater from the site provides billions of gallons of clean water to the surrounding community for various uses. In addition, the former Lockheed Martin facility now supports a diverse array of commercial and industrial businesses, including the Burbank Empire Center retail complex, Burbank Airport Commerce Center industrial park, and entertainment industry-related businesses. Superfund site restoration and reuse can revitalize local economies with jobs, new businesses, tax revenues and local spending. Cleanup may also take place while active land uses remain on site. Use of treated site groundwater can restore a valuable and scarce resource. This case study covers the Burbank operable unit of the San Fernando Valley (Area 1) Superfund site’s cleanup and reuse, illustrating the results of Superfund redevelopment. Beneficial Results About 3.3 billion gallons of contaminated groundwater are treated and returned to the municipal water supply each year, saving the city of Burbank nearly $5.9 million annually.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In the fall of 1997, the not-for-profit hospitals in the San Fernando and Santa Clarita Valleys (SPA-2) joined efforts to conduct a community needs assessment of the two Valleys. The impetus behind this project came from the Valley Care Community Consortium due to the need for reliable data on the community to assist with planning and program development activities. Now that three years have passed the hospitals have again joined forces to conduct an assessment of SPA-2. In addition to the hospitals, other organizations were invited to the table to participate in this process. These organizations included community clinics, educational institutions, social service organizations, the local public health office and other community based organizations.
