Roadrunners on the Rise

Introducing a New Brand for LBCC

Linn-Benton Community College has a new look! For the first time in more than 30 years, LBCC has unveiled a new brand identity to convey the college’s character, purpose and aspirations as a community leader in higher education – and its commitment to opportunity, excellence, inclusiveness, learning and engagement: otherwise known as Roadrunner Pride! Serving two counties and many municipalities, with four campuses and over 85 unique programs of study – LBCC serves more than 18,000 students each year who come from a variety of ethnicities, age groups, political leanings, income levels and interests…and yet, despite its reach, research showed that LBCC’s brand in the public could be enhanced.

“With a modern visual identity and new messaging tools to effectively communicate our strengths, I am confident we have positioned LBCC to be an even stronger and more influential community partner for many years to come,” said LBCC President Greg Hamann. New Logo and Emblem At the heart of the new brand schema is an updated college logo, which includes a new emblem reflective of two enduring characteristics: the hyphen in the Linn-Benton name, and the Roadrunner nickname carried by the college since it began in 1966.

To address this challenge, LBCC engaged in a comprehensive rebranding effort with the Corvallisbased creative firm Madison Ave. Collective. Guided by a 20-member task force and led by Institutional Advancement, the college spent nearly a year gathering the input of hundreds of LBCC faculty, staff, students, and community members, and developing the right “voice” of the college to inspire students of all walks and stages of life to achieve passionate, purposeful growth at LBCC.

Staff during LBCC Inservice showing off the new logo.

LBCC’s Roadrunner mascot also plays a part, and was used to add forward-motion to the hyphen – representing progress toward LBCC’s commitment to student success. One example of this commitment is LBCC’s national leadership in the Guided Pathways program, in which students begin in a broad area of study, then progressively narrow their focus to a major that truly fits their goals. Programs such as this demonstrate how LBCC empowers every student to find their personal road.

“

I am confident we have positioned LBCC to be an even stronger and more influential community partner for many years to come.

“

The new brand is designed to empower all members of the campus community – from faculty and staff to community members, students and alumni – to lean into the college’s identity as game-changers, dream-developers and dooropeners. The hyphen in these phrases is intentional, and serves as a symbol of connection, as does the hyphen in the Linn-Benton name. In fact, the hyphen in the college name inspired not only the messaging, but the new logo mark as well – and has come to symbolize the connection between the campuses, cities, programs, people and communities that LBCC serves.

~Greg Hamann

This class is specifically designed to dispel the rumors and geared toward moderately skilled guitar players who are interested in playing some of the timeless jazz standards written by the jazz greats such as Duke Ellington, Dave Brubeck, Miles Davis, etc. Non guitar players are welcome to take the class on instructor approval.

WIDEN THE ROAD TO STUDENT SUCCESS

Greg Hamann with students at LBCC’s Healthcare Occupations Center in Lebanon, Oregon.

LBCC President Greg Hamann issues a community challenge: 1,000 donors to the LBCC Foundation Each year, LBCC serves more than 18,000 students who are on a path to meet goals through higher education…goals that will help them take pride in their futures, get a good job, provide for children and family, and gain skills that contribute to our entire community. LBCC graduates go on to strengthen our region and our world. And yet, for many LBCC students, the desire to go to college, and the ability to attend and graduate, can be an incredible challenge. On top of their studies, students must juggle financial barriers, family responsibilities, and often the basics of life – for some, even to the point of being sure of adequate housing and daily food. For low-income and first-generation college students, the challenges are especially steep. That is why the LBCC Foundation exists: to bring together caring community members to lend support to the students and programs of our community college, so that ultimately everyone succeeds. Through donations and advocacy, the Foundation provides a conduit for anyone to play a role in this mission.

Join President Hamann in His Community Challenge With his upcoming retirement in June 2020, President Greg Hamann is capping his 10-year career with LBCC with a long to-do list this final academic year. One item in particular calls for community support: he is calling it the “Widen the Road to Student Success” challenge. Specifically, this challenge sets a goal of 1,000 people to make a donation to the Foundation this year. Every gift size will be counted – the goal is to broaden the base of support for students in the years to come.

Depending on your personal passion, there are hundreds of opportunities to direct your gift so that it benefits an aspect of LBCC. You can designate your gift for scholarships and program support through the General Fund, to be used wherever the need is greatest – or, you can connect your gift to a specific cause. The Foundation supports student success through scholarships in everything from healthcare or livestock judging, to civil discourse or science – to funds that honor the memory of someone you may know. The Foundation recently announced several new memorial scholarship funds honoring community leaders such as the Joseph Novak or Matilda Novak memorial scholarship funds, and the Shelly Garrett memorial scholarship fund.

Roadrunners Unite! Anyone can be an “LBCC Roadrunner” through this challenge. Whether you attended or know someone who attended LBCC personally, or just want to make a difference in sharing the proven power of a college education with our community, supporting the LBCC Foundation will help widen the road to success for others. Together, we can make a difference so that everyone – students and supporters alike – can call themselves “Roadrunners” and contribute to the cultural richness and economic vitality of our community.

BECOME A ROADRUNNER! Find out more or donate online at

www.linnbenton.edu/1000 The LBCC Foundation is a registered 501c3 charitable organization. All gifts to LBCC Foundation are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law.

Linn-Benton Community College President Greg Hamann cuts the ribbon on a newly renovated Career Technical Education facility.

New Career Technical Education Facilities will Empower Tomorrow’s Workforce LBCC celebrated the completion of sparkling new renovations to its Career Technical Education (CTE) facility at the the Albany campus this fall – upgrades that feature the latest in technology to meet the demands of many manufacturing employers in the area, and equipment that will empower students to build advanced skills as they head out into the workforce. The renovations were part of a $20 million project funded through the 2014 voterapproved bond measure, and by government and industry partners, such as the City of Albany, the Oregon legislature, and local companies who advised the college on how best to prepare for tomorrow’s workforce needs. The LBCC Foundation also played a role in generating community advocacy and support for the project. The new facility provides another “front door” to the college by proudly welcoming students and visitors to some of the college’s flagship CTE programs. Mechatronics, Welding and Industrial Fabrication, Machine Tool, and Non-Destructive Testing and Evaluation programs have been given a more modern, open environment. For example, rather than a stereotypical machine shop, the facilities feature large windows “… so that people can see it, and be interested in it, and come to a better understanding of the role that these kinds of skills and programs play in our communities to help us be stronger communities with a stronger economy,” said LBCC President Greg Hamann. A ribbon cutting ceremony was held in September to dedicate the new facilities, which included new landscaping to the grounds surrounding the buildings and the addition of a large metal sculpture designed and created by LBCC students. Along with many partners representing industry leadership, Oregon Labor Commissioner

“We need one more thing — talented young people with the skills to respond.” ~Marc Christman, Group VP Titanium/Selmet

FESTO Didactic CEO Thomas Lichtenberger with President Greg Hamann

Labor Commissioner Val Hoyle

Val Hoyle was in attendance. Commissioner Hoyle benefitted from a community college education herself and encouraged the community to continue to support LBCC in building resources. “That’s what you’re providing for people who come in to those doors who never dream that they could have these middle and high wage jobs,” she said. At the event, the college also announced an exciting new partnership with global automation company FESTO Didactic, which will allow students to interact with the most recent technology and provide up-to-date curriculum for student learning. CEO Thomas Lichtenberger visited from New Jersey to view the new Mechatronics program facility. “Wow, this is really something,” he said. “I look forward to welcoming future employees who have been trained at LBCC.” Marc Christman, Vice President of Selmet in Albany, said his company would benefit from investing in student training and education, noting that within the next two years, Selmet will have to make 2 million components for aircraft. “We have the facilities,” said Christman. “We need one more thing — talented young people with the skills to respond.” Albany Mayor Sharon Konopa said the community and LBCC came together to do just that — provide skilled workers to help grow local industry. “LBCC career technical programs are ready to provide 21st Century training to students,” she said. “This investment will lead to highwage jobs that meet regional workforce needs.”
