ON CAMPUS 9 OLD ACQUAINTANCES 18 The President's Corner t is a pleasure to comment upon three special developments that have I occurred at the beginning of the new academic year. First, the Chairman of the Board of Trustees, R. Chandler Myers, and I join in announcing the election to the Board of Oscar J. Jimenez. Mr. Jimenez is a Partner in charge of the Privately Owned Business Depart- ment in the Los Angeles office of Ernst & Whinney. A 1961 graduate of the college, as is his wife, Gail (Stevens) Jimenez, Oscar has been active in alumni affairs and has had a distinguished career in business and ac- counting. His election further strengthens an already impressive Board. Second, on October 3 we dedicated the Lester L. Harris Speech and Hearing Clinic. This event honored Dr. Harris' thirty-three years of self- less service to the college. At the dedicatory ceremony Dr. Edward Klein, Director of the Speech and Hearing Clinic, commented that " . the department and the clinic are here today because of the unique combina- tion of personal qualities that Les brought to his tenure at Whittier." It was a great satisfaction to me to participate in a program honoring a Whit- Cover tier faculty member who helped to shape this fine old college.

  • Hugh Mcgilvra Talk on Washington County Newspapers and Forest Grove History for the Tualatin Valley Historical Society
    Hugh McGilvra Talk on Washington County Newspapers and Forest Grove History for the Tualatin Valley Historical Society An audio recording of Hugh McGilvra, journalist and newspaper publisher in Forest Grove, giving a talk to the Tualatin Plains Historical Society on the occasion of his 50th anniversary of work. He talks about the newspaper history of Washington County for the first 25 minutes; the final 27 minutes are about his experiences working on the newspaper in Forest Grove and the community there. HM = Hugh McGilvra [00:00:00] [Recording begins mid-sentence] [HM]: ...practically everything in Forest Grove is that you don't know which is the egg and which is the chicken as far as Forest Grove and Pacific University are related. Historically, we know that they are intertwined and there has always been a relationship. I think as has been suggested by the introduction, that journalism in Washington County goes back to this date of about 1848. With a rather irregular publication of what was known as the Oregon American and the Evangelical Union, started in Tualatin Plains. Even if we ignore this rather odd publication as a real newspaper, there of course is still the Oregonian, which was actually started in Washington County, if you want to get your history straight. For a while, Multnomah County was not carved up into Washington and Clackamas County, until 4 years after the Oregonian made its [bow?] in 1850. This new county of Multnomah wasn't very highly -- was formed in spite of vigorous opposition of the Oregonian. Which regarded it as merely an opportunity for getting whatever the 1854 equivalent of the serving Democrats happened to be to get the opportunity for another office.

  • Eyes Turn to Oregon GOP Debate, Primary
    Friday, March 9, 2012 Hillsboro Argus Opinion A5 Opinion Editor: George Rede [email protected] Opinion A break from tradition An editorial page without an editorial? Sometimes it’s good to break the rules. When I became editor of the Argus Opinion page earlier this year, I wrote an unsigned editorial (Feb. 2) that expressed the hope we could cultivate a com- munity conversation in print and online. Today’s page reflects what I had in mind when I wrote: “We will continue to publish letters to the edi- tor, guest columns and keep a local, local, local focus on the issues addressed here. And we will endeavor to build on that, by embracing the view that the entire community benefits when we are exposed to a wide spectrum of perspectives and opinions — not just from elected officials and other community leaders, but from people who live and work and go to school here, whether they are new arrivals or people whose roots go back generations.” Scan the page and you’ll see what I mean. Along with an editorial cartoon and letter to the editor, we have guest columns from a familiar voice on Oregon poli- tics, Jayne Carroll, and a company representative, Dave Dutra, responding to ongoing concern about the odors coming from the recycling plant near North Plains. The roundup of additional commentary, excerpted below, gives you a taste of what you’ll find online. We appreciate those of you who are loyal readers of this page. We also are posting fresh content every day — letters, op-eds, reader polls and more — to engage with and grow our online audience.

  • Tualatin River Watershed Council West Fork Dairy Creek Restoration Project Completion Report OWEB Grant 207-306
    Tualatin River Watershed Council West Fork Dairy Creek Restoration Project Completion Report OWEB Grant 207-306 I. Narrative Description of the Project. Background on the problem which generated the project. In 2004, Oregon Parks and Recreation Department staff (OPRD) met with the Tualatin River Watershed Council (the Council) to work together to identify key watershed issues and limiting conditions and address these issues and limiting conditions within the L.L. ‘Stub’ Stewart State Park property which was being developed by OPRD. The 1,654- acre park includes the headwater and main stem of West Fork Dairy Creek and three tributaries, Brooke Creek, Williams Creek and Logging Creek. Using its Dairy-McKay Watershed Assessment (1999), the partners focused on these identified key watershed issues found on the park property: erosion control and water quality issues, due to sediment delivery into streams from stream crossings; aquatic species and habitat issues, due to degradation of habitat and water quality; stream channel issues, due to lack of large wood debris in streams that limit pool development; and migration barriers, due to fish passage barriers at stream crossings. During summer 2005, the Council and community volunteers and OPRD staff performed a culvert inventory and survey of all (over 30) culverts for fish passage barriers located within the park. With assistance from the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) stream restoration biologist, three culverts on the main stem and a tributary of West Fork Dairy Creek were prioritized for evaluation. In February 2006, the Council obtained an OWEB technical assistance grant for analysis, design, plans and specifications to replace one culvert, remove two culverts, and perform a stream survey on the stream reaches below and above the culverts (a 2.7 mile stream reach) that resulted in prioritization of stream reaches for and design of enhancement activities.
