Mary Spilde - Lane Community College President

Many people are surprised when I tell them that in any given term, nearly ten percent of Lane County residents are enrolled in a class at Lane. But it’s not that surprising if you think about it. Whether it’s a transfer student preparing for future studies, a diesel mechanic learning his or her trade, a chef in training, an older adult making a career change, a community member taking a language class, an entrepreneur getting their start through our Small Business Development Center, or a nurse getting her bachelor’s degree from OHSU here on our campus, we are the hub of our community’s education.

This next year will mark Lane Community College’s 50th anniversary. Before we celebrate a historic anniversary, I want to celebrate the successes of the past year with you. In 2013, you helped us transform lives. We distributed nearly $700,000 in foundation scholarships to our students. We had our most successful Harvest Dinner to date, raising $300,000 to support the Foundation and our students. We celebrated four new distinguished alumni. We welcomed a new Foundation Director, and the Foundation Board and LCC Board of Education began crystallizing plans for what’s next for the Foundation and the College.

So, what is next? It’s clear that as we move forward, the Foundation and donors like you will continue to play an even more critical role. We need more scholarships that change the lives of students like Caitlin Roeder, whom you will read about in this report. We need more modern facilities. As I write this, the center of our campus is under construction as we create a 21st-century campus hub that will provide students with a one-stop shop for library, tutoring, technology support and collaborative meeting space. We want to be a catalyst that will shape and grow our local economy, not only do we want students to graduate job-ready, but we want to bring our corporate and community partners together to chart the course of our local and regional industry for the next fifty years. These are big dreams, but I know that with friends like you, they are possible.
