Dear Fellow Employees: Summers in the Northwest are special for all of us. In fact, they are so enjoyable that it is often difficult to gear up for the new year and begin thinking or cold weather and heavier work loads.

However. with fall almost upon us, we must re-energize and begin preparation for the many srudents who are looking to NIC as die place that will give them that special edge for realizing a dream and fulfilling a goal.

I reali'ze that this kind or rhetoric may sound a bit comy and maybe even a bit preachy. but the swdents expect us to be upbeat and enthusiastic about our careers, and so do I. Following commencement this last May, I caught a course on the history and philosophy of education for the University of Idaho. This experience immediately resensitized me to the amount of energy and labor that the teaching profession requires.

However, as difficult as it was handling two jobs at the same time. I was exhlla-

rated at the thought of entering the classroom. I had 40 students ranging In ages from early 20s to mid 40s and all shared the dream of becoming teachers. I was Impressed both with their intellect and with their desire to be part of what they considered to be a unique profession that presented great challenges and tremendous. personal rewards.

This. of course, is what I hope for each of you who are lucky and talented enough to be part of the education business.

Whether you are an instructor, support staff or administrator. it Is important that you lilave a positive attitude about NIC, and enjoy both the students and your fellow employees.

The older I gee, the more I believe that it ls necessary to like what we do for a living if we are to appreciate all the rest that ·the world has to offer. So as you put away the swim suits and shorts and think about storing the boat and the lawn mower for another year, don't be too depressed about losing those long summer days.

Remember that we are lucky to have jobs that are pleasurable and students who continue to think us Important to their lives. When we think about the fall from that perspective, the heavy work• loads and the cold weather are at least bearable.

Sincerely, C. Robert Bennett President

Welcome S3ck1 I hope each one of you had an excellent summer that provided you some time to relax and rejuvenate. My first summer in Northern Idaho has been one of excitement: as I have had the opportunity t0 spend time enjoying the many outdoor actlllities that this area provides.

Instructional deans say,

'Welcome back!' le is my pleasure to add a warm welcome to all college employees as we begin the 1992-93 school year.

After having served the last two years as the Interim Dean, I will be returning to duties as the Associate Dean of Academic Affairs this year (happily so, I might add!). ' The summer provided a time when the new Dean of Instruction, Dr. Jerry Gee, the new Associate Dean or Vocational Education. Dr. Barb Bennett and I could do some planning for the year ahead. We have been collaborating on items such as the upcoming program moves: the accreditation report; the joint teaching of vocational core classes by the Vocational and the Math/English faculty: budgeting and scheduling of classes; faculty and staff contracts: fall orientation week activities, etc.

The major projects and services that I will be responsible for this year will include working with the academic division chairs on daily operatronal matters that relate to student and faculty concerns: implementing the new POU (Professional Development Unit) system: assisting the dean with the accreditation visit. the tenure process, budgets and class schedules; and certainly, "other duties as assigned", a phrase that no administrator's contract should be without!

On a personal note. most people know that I am a third generation Colorado native who was educated in both Colorado and Iowa, but I am happy to report that I am now a IS year resident of Coeur d'Alene. My Master's Degree is from the University of Idaho. and l am currently exploring further graduate degree opportunities.

I am looking forward co this year as we all work together on behalf of the students at NIC. Kathy Baird Associate Dean of Academic Affairs

upcoming year can be very rewarding for the students and ourselves. As the school year unfolds please feel free co drop by and express any new Ideas or concerns.

Greetings!

For those reading this who are new to the College, you will soon find that you are truly in a supportive learning environment. For you "old timers:' I am trusting that these few thoughts will cause you t0 reflea for a moment on the uniqueness of NIC. Having had the opportunity to work in many community college settings. I'm finding NIC Is "special:' The phrase, "community of scholars" suggests a oneness and dearly defines NIC's unique enviromient.

I beliC\le we are living in exciting times and while there are many challenges facing NIC, these can also be seen as opportunities for us to more fully fulfill the mission or North Idaho College.

During the short time I have been on campus, I have seen administrators, facvity and staff working and learning together to meet swdent needs in w.rrs that I had not thought possible. To me there is nothing more exciting for a college community.

The critical Issue and overall obfective facing Vocational Technical Education, whether It's vocational technical certificate programs, cwo-year terminal degree programs, Tech Prep or workplace readiness. Is to educate and train a workforce for an ever changing world economy.

As you well know there are very few places in the coum:ry growing as rapidly as North Idaho, and meeting the training needs for this area will keep all or us on our toes.

The role NIC's Voe Tech Ed will play in meeting the challenges or North Idaho's rapidly expanding econOITl'f has never been more tnJCial.

Not since the '30s has there been a time when the issues or a trained workforce have had so strong a focus in our country.

Coordinating training and education by providing students the best possible education base we can deliver. assisting in the retraining or workers who for one reason or another have lost their jobs and providing skill upgrading for currently employed persons will be a challenges for all or us.

I am finnly convinced that one of our most imporomt roles will be to prepare our srudents for lifelong learning. The brand of educational experience we provide for them tOday will make a d'ifference in the,r work environment wmorrow.

To be successful in this important role, ic is paramount that as a college we continue to seek Input n-om our community, to evaluate this input, and then to strategically review the mission of NIC on a yearly basis to ensure that we Structure our delrvery or 1nnruction to meet these ever changing needs.

Barbara J. Bennett Associate Dean of Vocational Education

Shy Schenk philosophizes about 'best service possible' Coming back to North Idaho College In the fall has to be a perfect illustration of ''mixed emotions."

You're bound to feel good about doing an Important job al a very good school.

On the other hand, nothing beats a North Idaho summer.

First. I don't Intend to get personal. I don't know all of you well enough for that.

Besides, I'm shy. But we were also asked for our "office philosophy." That's much easier.

We try hard to offer the best service possible in support of the college mission.

There's more, of course. We even have our own departmental mission statement. But the gist of It Is pretty much what I just wrote.

And finally, a brief biography. That's pretty dull stuff, I'm afraid. Not much that "enquiring minds want co know."

We strive to not only help students with their immediate needs, but also provide them with Informatio n that can be of assistance to them throughout their college careers and beyond.

Employees, students may use athletic facilities, equipment, staff

By JOELLE STOREY There is more to the Athletic Department than meets the eye. It's usually associated with a particular sports program, depending on the season. We think of home games, popcorn, cheer leaders, and the camaraderie spectators share when cheering for our team.

Bue, did you know that be.sides a basketball court and bleachers. the gymnasium has facilities that are available for staff use/ The weight room has universal weight machines and/or stationary exercise bikes to work-out on. Many people walk the stairs on the bleachers during lunch (who needs a fancy Stair Machine/) or check out sports equipment for a quick court game. Showers are available.

Cornucopia of classes cultivated through instructors' interests

by D eborah A kers

For those who have a special talent or interest In an unusuill topic and would like to share it with others, the Office of Short-Term Training and Community Education (mCE) would hke lO hear about it.

In the past, instructors have been hired to teach everything from Horseback Riding to Dental Assisting, according to Dr. Robert

Ketchum, director of mce.

"As the unit of the college which is most flexible. we can provide another way for teachers to ceach.'' Ketchum said.

'We're here co help identify the needs of the community; and because of our flexibility , we're able to act as the leading edge in creating new programs most rapidly,'' he said.

Since its opening in Aug. 1991, the Office of STICE has responded to the needs of the community and local businesses by providing special interest programs, pre-employment training and upgrade training. These programs are of short duration and are non-credit classes. Instructors with a special Interest are encouraged to call Ext. #1.

Opportunities for cross-cultural awareness offered to community Members of the NIC community have some unique opportunities to develop cross-cultural awareness by participating with the International Sister-College exchanges.

One opportunity is to host a Japanese student during a twO· co four-week homestay. Each year, NIC's tw0 Japanese sister-colleges bring groups of students to Coeur d'Alene for immersion into American culture.

The students spend time studying English language

and American pop-culture, recreat.ion and Family life.

A stipend is paid to those fam ilies who welcome a student into their homes.

A second opportunity to develop cross-cultural awareness exists when the Office of Community Education coordinates an annual outbound trip to Japan.

In March of I992, a small group traveled to NIC's sister-college In Nagasaki, Japan. The $ 1,500 price of

che one-week trip was extremely reasonable. according to Kathryn Lange, coordinator of community education.

Lange also said that she is looking into a sistercollege agreement with a school in Taiwan and beginning preliminary work on an outbound trip to Russia.

People int e re sted in host ing a Jap a ne s e student or in te reSled In either o utbo und 11'1) should call Lange at Ext. 22 4.

Bookstore renovated for ·fall semester A new floor plan, new carpet and paint are improvements of the NIC bookstore. located to the rear or the Student Union Building Just across from the gym. The score makes every effort to provldo for the needs of the students, faculty and staff. according to spokeswoman Joan Pyle.

The bookstore offers students a refund on books purchased In the bookstore through the first two weeks or school (with a receipt). These books must be In new condition. not marked or abused in any way.

I( a dass is canceled. I00 percent of the book price is refunded. If a student changes classes or drops a course and wishes a refund, a 25-cent charge will be assessed for each book returned.

Buybacks in the bookstore are held during finals at the end or each semester.

Books are bought back based on need, edition and adoption for the upcoming semester. Students will recieve 50 percent of the purchase price on those books purchased from the bookstore. Other books can also be sold at a current catalogprice.

Textbooks are ordered based on information received from instructors and\or division chair persons. This information should reach che bookstore in a timely manner. The order forms should reach the bookstore on the dates indicated in the Oyers sent out in the fall and spring. This allows sufficient time to prepare buyback list. do research on the book. contact used book companies for additional used copies and, finally. order from the publisher.

The score carries a wide variety o r student supplies, which are purchased by a group buying-process through the Northwest College Booksto re Association.

This assures t he customer of the best affordable prices on these items.

Auto Body Tech will repair some staff, student vehicles

By CLIVE GRIMMITT

The Auto Body Tech Program needs certain projects at certain times during the semester for students co work on.

The first projects needed are full paint jobs on autos and pickups.

However, there are some restrictions.

The instructor will begin writing estimates for NIC students, faculty and staff beginning Aug. 25 between 9:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. The instructor must see the vehicle. There will be no repair at this time, so the body should be in good condition. After Aug. 31, estimates will be written for the general public.

Since there is a limited number of paint jobs taken, an early estimate would give a better chance of getting it in. The instructor reserves the right to decline any vehicle he may feel would not be a satisfactory project for the students. Paint jobs are only done in September and October. No projects of any kind will be taken In November since the students will be learning and practicing welding and basic metal repair.

Beginning Dec. I, minor body repair

and spot painting projects will be taken. Estimates can be given. however, for these projects in October and November. The vehicles must be no older than IO years old, '82-83 or newer. We will not do rust-through repair, full paint Jobs, trailers, boats, motorcycles, vehicles longer than pickups or Insurance work.

The second semester will continue with body repair and spot painting.

From February through the first part of May. major repair, such as panel replacement, unibody alignment. and glass replacement projects will be taken. Again. the instructor muse see the vehicle; they must be 1983 or newer and complete paint jobs are not available.

Advise students and others of our need for projects at the appropriate

times. however. caution them that not all projects can be accepted and students will be doing the work, which will take longer than a regular auto body repair shop. The cost of repairs will be the retail cost of materials and pares. sales cax and a IS percent shop charge. There is no charge for labor.

Auto body repair, finishing schedule All work is done by the students for instructional purposes. The instructor reserves the right to refuse work that may not be instructional. All vehicles must be seen by the instructor and an estimate given before work will be accepted. No guarantee is given that work will be done when an estimate is given.

Refinishing - (September and October) Cars and pickups only. This includes complete paint jobs. This is the only time complete paint jobs are done. Due to the unavailability of body repair. all body repairs muse be done elsewhere first Welding and Minor Repair Practice - (November) No customer work taken.

Minor Repair and Spot Painting - (December through March) Cars and pickups only. Vehicles must be 198- or newer. No complete paint jobs. Panel and spot painting only. No rust repair.

Major Repair - (February through June) Cars and pickups only. Vehicles must be 1982 or newer.

Panel replacement Glass replacement Major repair - Wreck rebuild and frame repair (April through June). Cars and pickups only. Vehicles must be 1983 or newer. No insurance work. no restoration work, no motorcycles, trailers or boats.
