Skiers May Opt Between Two Clubs
By Jacqueline Barron
Staff Writer
Students interested in skiing have a choice
this semester because PCC now has two ski
clubs. The new ski club started this fall has
been recognized by the United States Recrea¬
tional Ski Association. It is appropriately
named the PCC Chapter of the USRSA. Mem¬
bership dues are $16.
Randy Burrell, president and founder of the
USRSA began organizing early this summer
and formed the club because he said he believed
more activities and organization were needed
for active skiers. We plan to have social events
every weekend, Burrell said.
"We want to have more ski trips with better
accomodations, more social events, discounts
and other benefits for skiers of all levels
throughout the whole year,"
Burrell noted that his club has been officially
recognized by the USRSA which will provide
benefits such as half price lift tickets, subscrip¬
tions to three popular ski magazines, ski theft
insurance up to $300, equipment discounts, free
ski week-ends, and recreational ski festivals.
Because of the 75 members who signed-up the
first week, the club is showing signs of success
already, claims Burrell. He said another 25
prospective members may sign-up from the
first week’s recruitment efforts.
The meetings for the PCC Chapter of the
USRSA are Thursdays at noon in R122. More
information may be obtained by calling
796-6501,
The purpose of the older PCC Ski Club is to
foster a deeper appreciaton of skiing and to
create and promote the sport of skiing among
and between its members. The $10 membership
dues for the PCC Ski Club go into a treasury and
that money goes to pay for films, refreshments
on trips, t-shirts, and general operating costs,
said Fred Ogram, president.
Ogram said the club has scheduled elections
for Tuesday, Nov. 16, because of alaw that
states no student can hold office more than two
terms. Although he feels his terms in office
have been successful, he is required to give-up
his office as of the new elections.
So far, there are no paid members in the PCC
Ski Club. Ogram said they are waiting for the
elections so the new officers will have clean
books to work with and their jobs won’t be
confusing from the beginning.
The meetings for the PCC Ski Club are the
first and third Tuesdays of each month at noon.
Additional information is available at 355-7975.
A trip is planned for both clubs to go to Park
City, Utah over Thanksgiving break. A fee of
$195 for the PCC Chapter of the USRSA has
been set. This fee includes a three nights stay
with everything except food which will be the
responsibility of the skier. Skis will be awarded
to an elected ski bunny.
For the PCC Ski Club a fee of $199 per person
has been set based on four per room and $249
per person based on two per room. This
includes a three nights stay, transportation with
refreshments, new Dvnastar skis to the male
and female winners of the third annual pajama
party, and a special Dapper Dan gift.
Administrator Kirk Promotes Col
Heref Abroad
60th Anniversary Planned Japan Looks to America
The 1984-85 academic year marks the
college’s 60th anniversary year. Al¬
though fireworks and a 60th birthday
party were mentioned along with about
30 other ideas, no specific com¬
memorative event was planned. Tues¬
day.
During the initial steering commit¬
tee meeting, Louis Creveling, repre¬
senting the PCC Foundation, said he
was one of the first college students in
1924. He estimated recruitment grew to
700 or 800 in the second year, and the
1924 graduating class was about 500.
Recruitment is one of the main objec¬
tives of the 60th anniversary plans.
The committee plans to utilize ongo¬
ing events throughout the academic
year. They also suggested that organiz¬
ing volunteers and useing department
services could achieve production of
events and related materials. They
decided to put the word out on campus
to generate other ideas and support.
‘‘We have a lot to celebrate .... It's
not only the the dollars that can be
raised, but this kind of activity has a
cohesiveness about it. It can draw an
institution together,” said adminis¬
trator Dr. Henery Kirk, who chaired
the eight membered committee.
Gilbert Higbee, alumni association
president, suggested a “speakers’ bu¬
reau” could spread the word to service
clubs, high schools, business groups
and others. Kirk added that an informa¬
tion packet could be developed which
volunteers could take to make presen¬
tations.
The steering committee’s minutes
will be circulated throughout the cam¬
pus for reaction, and the second meet¬
ing is planned for the first of Novem¬
ber.

Trips to Alaska and Japan have kept
Kirk, vice president of educational
services and assistant to the president,
busy representing PCC.
Last week Kirk was in Japan where
he attended an international sym¬
posium on the training and developo-
ment of data professionals. The
Japanese Administration Management
Association invited Kirk and his wife to
Japan to present a program about how
Americans attract and use data proc¬
essing specialists. The Association paid
for Kirk’s trip.
“While the Japanese are ahead in
some production and technological
areas, they are interested in learning
about American approaches to educa¬
tion and in-service training, ” Kirk
said. "America appears to be ahead in
software development, and Japan
wishes to catch up.”
Kirk informed the conference about
data processing careers and cited re¬
lated eduational programs at PCC. His
wife spoke about how to attract, data
processing professionals and how to
develop professionals from within a
company.
“My wife took her first computer
course at PCC in the late 1960’s, " Kirk
said. She is now an assistant vice
president at California Federal Savings
and Loan Association.
Two weeks ago Kirk visited
Ketchikan Community College in
Alaska as part of an accredidation
team. As a member of the Western
Association of Schools and Colleges, he
participated in the evaluation of stu¬
dent services. The trip was paid for by
the Alaskan college.

Beginning its fouth year, Community
Services continues to provide classes
for the needs of the community, said
Mariann Loniello. associate dean of
community services. In the past, the
college offered extended campus, non
credit classes funded by the state.
When state funds were cut, the classes
had to be discontinued.
“We wanted another avenue to offer
the community because of these cuts.
We set up a self supporting service. The
community pays fees for the classes
which in turn keeps the program oper¬
ating,” said Loniello who started the
service.
The Community Services Program
contains six divisions. One day work¬
shops offer a variety of classes. These
workshops help in improving work

A survey to help decide what pro¬
grams to offer appears in the com¬
munity services brochure. Requests
from individuals and comparisons of
other colleges’ programs also de¬
termines classes. “We have one of the
largest community service programs
in the state.” Loniello said she feels
very strongly that it is a valuable
program which meets community
needs. “It’s fun because things are
always changing.”
More information on available pro¬
grams can be found at the Community
Services office in C117.
Lost and Found
The lost and found is located in
CC108, the campus safety office. Items
which are turned into the lost and found
fall under two categories, valuables or
miscellaneous.

the valuables such as wallets, glasses
and jewelry. Other items such as
clothing, shoes and umbrellas are not
tagged and records are not kept.
Any student claiming an item must
present proper student identification to
the safety office attendant. Students
must also give an accurate description
of the item which they hope to claim.

Pasadena Mayor William Bogaard
and his wife Claire Bogaard, Pasa¬
dena Heritage executive director,
will present their views on Pasa¬
dena’s future and history at a social
science forum Oct. 18.
“How much of the past should be
retained and how much should give
way to the future?” asked David
Leary, social sciences professor,
who helped organize the forum. The
answers will be addressed by the
Bogaards next Thursday at 10:30
a.m. in C301.
The mayor will focus on com¬
mercial development and Pasa¬
dena's revitalization efforts since the
early 1970’s. Mrs. Bogaard will cover
the historic preservation movement
and its importance to local events.
She will explain the founding of
Pasadena Heritage and how its role
has evolved in Pasadena.
“Preservation is often erroneously
seen as being anti progress or anti
business,” said Ken Miedema, social
sciences professor and Pasadena
Cultural Heritage Commission mem¬
ber. “Some people see new buildings
going up and aren't happy while
others want new business at any
cost,” said Mrs. Bogaard. The truth
is preservation and development can
go hand in hand, she said.
For more than 20 years "the social
science forum has added spice to the
academic menu,” Leary said. Our
programs differ from customary
classroom experience. Formats vary
from a single speaker to panel dis¬
cussions and topics deal with past,
present and future concerns. Both
students and the public are invited to
attend and participate in a question
and answer segment after the pres¬
entation, Leary said.
