President,
Alumni Association
Greetings from the Alumni
Association! It is my
pleasure to share with you
what the association has
been up to this last season
and give you a glimpse of
what is to come.
Our fifth annual golf tournament was yet another
success. We are very excited to have purchased
two 42 flat screen televisions that have been
placed in the new LCSC Activity Center as a result
of the funds raised at last years tournament.
I want to be sure to give a big thanks to our
sponsors, especially our major sponsor Inland
Cellular, association members, volunteers and
participants of the tournament who made it such
a great event. Mark your calendars and plan
on participating in this years golf tournament
scheduled for August 26th, 2006.
The association is proud to have offered events
outside of Lewiston recently. LCSC alumni
gathered in Coeur dAlene in December to begin a
chapter there. Association board member Melinda
George, who lives in CDA, was a great help in
getting the chapter started. It will be exciting to
see that group develop and grow! There was also
an event in Boise where alumni gathered during
Higher Education Week. It is opportunities
like these that will keep our relations strong
with fellow alum and remind us of the important
connection we have with LCSC.
It is exciting to be offering new events this year.
There will be a Parents Weekend scheduled
Dogwood Festival Weekend (beginning April
28th) and Warrior Weekend scheduled
Memorial Day Weekend in conjunction with the
NAIA World Series. In addition, the association
is busy planning activities around this years
commencement, which will include a reception
with prizes for graduates. And the annual awards
ceremony will also be scheduled for May.
I am thrilled to be a part of such an energetic
and dedicated alumni association! Please visit
the web site to learn more about the events and
how you can participate in the association. Your
continued support and connection to the college
is what keeps us going! I look forward to seeing
you at one of the upcoming events.
Regards,

Danielle Hardy, President

Renee Olsen

Director of Alumni
and Community
Relations

Please allow me to introduce myself as the Director of Alumni and Community Relations. I am proud to join the
staff of an academic institution with such an outstanding reputation. In the short time since joining LCSC I have
had the opportunity to learn of the outstanding things that graduates are doing. It is no exaggeration when I say
that at least once a week, I hear excellent news about an L-C grad/entrepreneur, or that a manager of a prospering
business raves to me about the LCSC alumni that he or she knows and how anxious the business is to employ
more like them.
And that them, is YOU. Our graduates are our product and we are very proud of you.

We are very excited about the plans we have for our alumni program and we encourage you to get involved with the
Alumni Association. Here are just a few ways to stay connected.
Attend an Event Think of the fun in reconnecting with former classmates at a Warrior gathering.
Experience Culture on Campus From theatre performances to inspiring works of art, LCSC provides
numerous opportunities for alumni and friends to experience culture on campus.
Volunteer Your Alumni Association offers many volunteer opportunities that invite you to stay connected,
engaged, and involved with LCSC today. By giving your time as a LCSC alumnus, you make tremendous
contributions to our beloved alma mater and to our fellow alumni. Some of these fun and rewarding volunteer
opportunities include Alumni Association Board, alumni chapters, event committees, student relations,
outreach and recruitment.
Host an Event L-C alumni live and work in nearly every state and in a number of countries around the world.
Please contact me if you have an idea for an event or are interested in hosting an event in your area.
Keep us Updated Keeping your alumni profile up to date helps strengthen the alumni network and we can
keep you involved to grow your own network.
Root for the Warriors! Show your Warrior pride and cheer on your favorite Lewis-Clark State College team.
Make a Gift Alumni and friends are vital to LCSCs success. Gifts from L-Cs alumni, parents and friends
make everything possible for our students and faculty - from scholarships to faculty research, and from new
buildings to technological advancements.

community.

place to park!
The challenges that come with a new
job are rewarding, exhausting, and are
definitely making me look at my work
world differently. After so many years
of treating students like adults, holding
parents at arms length, and talking only
with the 20% of the population that are
student leaders or discipline problems,
Ive got to change my entire paradigm. I
now work with high school juniors and
seniors who are concurrently finishing
their last two years of high school and
earning an associates from Northwest
Missouri State University. Few students
stay at Northwest, many go on to schools
with specializations in engineering,
sciences, math, and technology.
Our upcoming life is getting exciting as
well. I just got another job as an ACT
Preparation instructor for Upward Bound
that meets a couple of Saturdays per
month. Lisa, Ella (our 2-year-old) and I will
be having a new member of the family at
the end of April as we are expecting our
2nd child. Ive applied for jobs as adjunct
instructor for online institutions, but as of
yet, nothing has come to fruition.

The LCSC Foundation established the Foundation Scholarship in 1991. The goal of the
scholarship is to attract students who show exceptional academic promise and leadership
potential. To be considered for a Foundation Scholarship, a student must have a grade point
average of at least 3.5. Academic achievement, an ability to express oneself in writing, and
involvement in sports, community, and other leadership and extracurricular activities all carry
weight on the scholarship application.

LCSCs Roster of Success

Here are some of the exciting things going on within the eight divisions at Lewis-Clark State College!
Business

The Lewis-Clark State College Business Division continues to grow in enrollment numbers. The Coeur dAlene
campus is now offering a day program as well as night, weekend, and online classes in order to accommodate the
rising number of business students. The divisions web site is undergoing a major reconstruction, and will soon
go live with new program information, a calendar of events, streaming video, slide shows of BSO and Investment
Club activities and other Business events. Take a look at www.lcsc.edu/business ... The Annual Business Division
Awards & Recognition Banquet will be held April 27 at the Red Lion Hotel. The evening will begin with a social at
6 p.m., followed by a prime rib dinner and an awards and recognition program. All alumni are invited to attend. For
more information contact the Business Division at (208) 792-2293. The Third Annual Business Division Alumni
and Friends Golf Tournament will take place May 13 at the Prairie Falls Golf Course in Post Falls with a 1 p.m.
shotgun start.

Business Technology & Service

The Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs has awarded initial accreditation of the
associate degree medical assistant program. This means the programs graduates can now become certified by
taking a national exam. This is the first medical assistant program in the Lewiston-Clarkston Valley. ... Three LCSC
teams from the Small Business Management class taught by Brian Stephens placed in the top five for cumulative
profit at the online Business Simulation Games, sponsored by Management Simulation, Inc. LCSC had four teams
compete in the simulation games during the fall semester against other teams from the United States and Canada.
Teams had to send in information on a certain problem during qualifying and the top teams moved on to the finals.
LCSC had teams finish third, fourth, fifth and 17th overall.

Spring 2006 Journey

Education

Last fall, LCSC dedicated the American Indian Center for Educational Excellence, called
Piamkinwaas, which is Nez Perce for The Gathering Place. The center features two computer
labs, academic and personal tutoring and counseling, a student lounge and office space for the
Indian Education Professional Development Program staff. The center gives Native American
students at LCSC a place to do homework, projects and relax. Professor Gwen Taylor has been
appointed to the American Library Associations prestigious Newbery Award Committee for 200607. The Newberry Medal is awarded annually to the author of the most distinguished contribution
to American literature for children in the United States. The Newberry Medal is named after the
18th century British bookseller John Newberry. Its the first time anyone from LCSC has been
selected to serve on the 15-member committee. New faculty members include Cliff Matousek
in Elementary Education and Heather VanMullem in Health/Kinesiology. Wayne Carroll and
Dave Massaro are continuing their work with distance learning technologies through the MERIT
Grant. Massaro also is working on the partnership with the Clarkston School District on the
summer PACE program. Carroll, Chris Riggs and Margaret Chavez are working with the school
district on the iTEACH grant. Linda Coursey is helping LCSC partner with the Boys and Girls
Club for tutoring in literacy.

Humanities

The LCSC Jazz Band, under the direction of Bill Perconti, was again named the Outstanding Open
Division Band at the 2006 Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival at the University of Idaho in Moscow.
The LCSC Concert Choir, under the direction of Joel Pals, was designated a Runner Up to the
Outstanding Open Division Choir at the same festival. Three students, on the basis of their
outstanding performances in the recent LCSC production of Down the Road, were nominated
by an adjudicator for the American College Theater Festival and competed in the prestigious
Irene Ryan Acting Scholarship Competition. Chris Aronen, Cecelia Lira, and William Titus took
part in the regional competition in the Tri-Cities in February. The largest single gift presented
to the Lewis-Clark State College Foundation, worth $666,000, will benefit both the Humanities
and Auto Mechanics/Diesel Mechanics/Collision Repair divisions at the college. The gift, which
was all property, was received last summer by the Foundation from donors who wish to remain
anonymous. The property and buildings were then sold and the money has been used to set up
the foundation endowment fund called The Rosehill Estate Gift Annuity. The amount will be split
evenly among the two divisions at the college. The annual payout from the endowment will create
an Artist/Scholar in Residence program for the Humanities Division.

Natural Science and Mathematics

The division enjoyed a Mexican cuisine catered luncheon earlier this year, thanks to winning a
canned food drive sponsored by The Interested Ladies of the Lambda Theta Alpha during a week
in November. Each division on campus was challenged to donate food items and the winning
division received a free catered lunch The division has been busy with its Seminar Series this
year. So far, presentations have included UI professor Ronald Crawford on Approaches to the
Detection of Extraterrestrial Microbial Life, Montana Tech professor Rick Douglass on How
Dangerous is Hantavirus and what does Mouse Ecology Have to do with it? This semester,
presentations included Malaria: A personal history of a global problem, by LCSC professor
Rachel Jameton; Targeted Molecular Therapies in Medical Oncology by Dr. Mike Rooney, an
oncologist; and Open-path infrared spectroscopy for analyzing the atmosphere at cattle and hog
farms, by UIs Peter Griffiths. These talks are supported through a grant from IDeA Network of
Biomedical Research Excellence (INBRE).

Nursing and Health Sciences

Earlier this year, the Idaho Board of Nursing Program granted its approval of the Practical
Nursing Program for the full eight years allowed. The PN program received initial IBON approval
when the program was established in 2003. The program began admitting students in January
of 2004. The Practical Nursing program at LCSC is the only one in Idaho from which students can
graduate with an Associate of Applied Science Degree. Graduates of the program have enjoyed a
100 percent pass rate for the first time they take the National Council of State Boards of Nursing

Practical Nurse License examination. LCSC continues to respond to a growing need in the nursing profession
both locally and in the Pacific Northwest with its second graduation class of practical nursing students from last
December. The 13 graduates attended classes throughout the year to prepare for work in the healthcare field. The
students completed hours in local long-term care facilities and hospitals, as well as a childrens diabetic camp
over the summer. Students in the program also are active in the community as they give presentations on the
importance of senior exercise to area senior citizens. Lori Stinson, the Bachelor of Science Nursing Director and
assistant to the chair of the division, has been presented the Outstanding Dissertation Award, given through the
Idaho Life Long Learning Association.

Social Science

Bill Clouser, Director of the Social Work Program at Lewis-Clark State College, is serving as Interim Chair of the
Division of Social Sciences for the 2005-06 academic school year. Clouser replaced Marilyn Levine, who resigned
last summer to accept a Deans position at Eastern Oregon University. A permanent chair will be named this
spring. Lewis-Clark State College, in cooperation with Boise State University, will offer an advanced standing
Master of Social Work degree starting this summer. The class is for anyone who has received a Bachelor of Social
Work degree and is interested in obtaining a masters degree. Boise State will extend its masters program to the
LCSC campuses in both Lewiston and Coeur dAlene, which will include video conference classes. Its a 10-month
program and will be the only Master of Social Work program in northern Idaho.

Technical & Industrial

Jack Hutsons Computer-Aided Machine Drafting class is designing and building a tower for a wind generator
that will be used near Moscow. In addition, student teams have designed and built fly-fishing reels that will be
auctioned off for an Engineering Technology fundraiser. The past two years, the class has designed catapults
that launched baseballs and computer monitors. The new Industrial Electronics Technology program is a
combination of the Automated Manufacturing and Electronics Technician programs. Students in this program
will learn about industrial electrical-electronic theory, wiring methods, equipment installation techniques, motor
control systems, sensors, and electrical safety procedures. Graduates in the program can expect to enter technical
positions in industry, construction and maintenance, and electronic manufacturing.

L-C ALUM NAMED IDAHO

SUPERINTENDENT OF THE YEAR
KELLOGG, IDAHO He stands at six-feet four-inches
tall, but the qualifications that named Kellogg
School District Superintendent Greg Godwin 73
as Superintendent of the Year arent as easy to
measure.
Godwin received word of the award at the Idaho
School Superintendents Association conference
held in Sun Valley last November.
It was a real humbling experience because I dont
do anything out of the ordinary from any other
superintendent in the state, he said, after returning
to Kellogg.
Individuals who work with Godwin on a regular
basis, however, said they notice a difference in
his approach to education administration. Some
people noted Godwins organizational skills,
leadership abilities, motivation, decisiveness and
professionalism, as just a few deciding factors
theyre sure snagged him the title.
Kellogg High School Principal Ralph Lowe said hes
worked at many school districts spanning the state
of Idaho, and Godwin is the best administrator in
education Ive seen in my life.

Two district employees said Godwin is so good

at what he does, they spent a month compiling
information and letters of recommendation required
for the nomination. In all, Godwins application
packet included recommendations from 1st District
Judge Fred Gibler, Idaho State Rep. Mary Lou
Shepard, and the endorsement of all five Kellogg
School Board trustees.
Idaho has 144 school districts and 12
superintendents were nominated for last years
award. Recipients are selected by a committee of
superintendents who reviewed each application
packet.
Godwin said hes lucky to have teachers,
administrators and staff of the highest quality to
work with in the district. (The award) means that
I have a whole staff of people at Kellogg School
District who work very hard to make me look good,
he said.

Time with Peace Corps Provides Life-Changing

Experiences for L-C Friends and Alumni
The Peace Corps used to use the recruiting slogan of
The Toughest Job Youll Ever Love. That slogan wasnt
what attracted some former and Lewis-Clark State
College students and those currently associated with
the college to join the Peace Corps, but they certainly
loved their experiences.
Donna Stadler, a 1989 graduate of LCSC, Kathy
Grussing, current Director of International Programs at
LCSC, and Gordon Thomas, husband of LCSC President
Dene K. Thomas, all say they had life-changing
experiences while serving in the Peace Corps.
Stadler served during 1989-91 in the Central American
country of Belize, which touches the borders of Mexico
and Guatemala. She was assigned to Lucky Strike
Village in Belize, which wasnt far from the Caribbean
Sea and about 3 miles away from the Maya Site of Altun
Ha.
I was getting a degree in Special Education at LCSC
and had been a teachers aid for 10 years, but I didnt
want to go to work in a public school, Stadler says. I
didnt know what I wanted to do with a degree in Special
Education and being in the Peace Corps didnt interest
me in the least. I was raised on a family farm with an
outhouse and we did laundry by hand, so why would I
want to do that again?
But I was at a friends house and a Peace Corps ad
28

came on TV and it said they were looking for teacher

trainers. I felt good about my teaching skills and felt that
is something I could do. I could train teachers on how to
deal with a special child. So I decided to sign up.
Stadler says it wasnt easy because she was age 38
when she graduated but quickly fell in love with the
village and its people. Even though English is the official
language of Belize, Lucky Strike was a Creole village.
That caused some communication problems in the
beginning but she was told the best thing was to speak
English because thats what the children in the school
were being taught.
The other eye opener for Stadler was that she was a
white female in an almost-all black village that didnt
have electricity. Stadler says she was befriended by a
young man who offered advice to her on what situations
to avoid. Stadler also learned fairly early in her time in
Lucky Strike that she was accepted when she walked
past a drinking establishment and someone asked
the patrons why they did not shout insults at this white
woman. The patrons responded the person was Miss
Donna and they would never speak to her like that
because they like her.
That was sort of my ah-ha moment, Stadler says. I
knew then I was in like flint. I didnt have to be afraid of
anything.
Spring 2006 Journey

Stadler says she didnt have a classroom, but helped

other teachers. She says she didnt push herself
on the teachers, but waited for them to ask for help
or suggestions. Once that happened, the teachers
often came back for more advice and welcomed her
presence.
The children welcomed Stadler as well, and it certainly
helped that she was unlike the other teachers, who
carried switches and sticks to lash the students for not
doing their work or misbehaving. Stadler says the fact
that she never carried a stick or hit a child and still got
them to do their work made a big impression with the
teachers and principals at the school.
It was a great experience, says Stadler, who often
returns to Belize to visit. I probably learned more about
myself. They (the Belizeans) did a better job of helping
me than I did helping them, but they probably wouldnt
agree. I think thats what it was all about. Learning
who you are and what you can do. I now know I can do
anything I was and not be afraid to try.
Grussing has been employed at LCSC since 1988
and became involved with the Peace Corps with her
husband LuVerne because of the Vietnam War in
1971. LuVerne was drafted but was later disqualified
because of a physical condition. In lieu of military
service, they opted to serve in the Peace Corps, where
their first assignment was teaching at a high school in
Menzel Temime, a small village on the northeastern
Mediterranean coast of Tunisia.
Our Peace Corps service was a life-changing
experience, Kathy says. We both had grown up in rural
Minnesota and had little to no experience with people
from other countries or culture.
After a year in Tunisia, LuVerne was offered a new
assignment in the Central African Republic as
national basketball coach and Kathy was assigned an
English teaching position at a Catholic girls school
in the capital city of Bangui. LuVerne coached the
national team to the seventh annual African Mens

Basketball Championship title in 1974 and the team

later competed in the World Championships in Puerto
Rico. Kathy and LuVerne attended a ceremony at the
CAR presidential palace, where President Jean-Bedel
Bokassa decorated LuVerne and his 12 players with
the medal of Officer de la Reconnaissance de la
Republique Centrafricain.
Our daily life was full of simple pleasures, few
conveniences and few distractions, Kathy says. We
took every opportunity to involve ourselves in the
local community, never passing up an opportunity to
see, eat or try something new. From visiting a pygmy
village, watching hippos in the Oubangui River, riding
in a dugout canoe, or sampling smoked caterpillars,
everything was new and exciting.
Kathy says her favorite story is the time a friend told her
she needed to try monkey meat. The friend offered to
get the monkey and prepare it for dinner, but what the
Grussings didnt realize is the friend had to go hunting
to get the monkey and then left it on the doorknob of
their house. Kathy says she and her husband managed
to get over the shock of seeing their dinner hanging
from the doorknob and eventually enjoyed a meal she
says that tasted like chicken.
The Peace Corps changed the direction of my life,
Kathy says. I decided to pursue a graduates degree
in Second Languages and Cultures. Both my husband
and I continue to have an insatiable desire to travel
and learn about the people from around the world. It
sparked a passion for the work I do today at LCSC. I feel

very fortunate to work at LCSC in my present position

serving the best and the brightest students from every
corner of the globe.

Thomas says he joined the Peace Corps to make a

difference with his skills and talents, and because
he wanted to get teaching experience and live in a
developing country.
Thomas taught English as a foreign language in
Cameroon, located on the West Coast of Africa, from
1974-78, and lived in three parts of the country,
including Douala, the largest city. During his first year,
Thomas lived in a city with no running water. In Douala,
Thomas had running water but says it was wise not to
drink tap water and that he never had hot water.
Thomas says his status as a teacher in the Cameroonian
society was higher than that of teachers in American
society today. He was paid about $200 a month and his
housing was paid for by the Cameroonian government.

money to do so.
Thomas says the Peace Corps experience allowed him
to see the power governments can have over peoples
lives, especially when the governments are inefficient
or corrupt. He said the Cameroonian government was
not bad by world standards, but did have an experience
in the justice system that shocked him. During his final
year, he caught a young man trying to pick his pocket.
The young man received a relatively mild beating with
a rubber hose as he was being interrogated and in
front of Thomas. The young man eventually received a
30-month sentence for what Thomas says was trying to
steal the equivalent of about $25.
I learned how to be patient in the face of overwhelming
difficulties, and I learned a lot about how to handle
people in a variety of situations when to get angry,
when to cajole, when to beg, when to flatter, and when
to insist righteously on getting my own way. Thomas
says. I have to use these skills quite often in my current
job as director of writing in the English department at
the University of Idaho.
The Peace Corps or Americorps is a great experience
for a young person to have, Thomas says. It is very
instructive to have to deal closely with people who lack
the advantages that so many Americans can take for
granted. Understanding foreign cultures is crucial, I
think, for the ability of the United States to get along
with other nations, something we have not been doing
very well lately.

I very much enjoyed my teaching, especially with some

of my students who were so eager to learn, Thomas
says. But my favorite part about the Peace Corps was
my interactions with the other volunteers. There were
about 125 of us, I think, and most were approximately
the same age in our mid 20s. We had similar
experiences in college, and depended on each other
quite a lot because our families were so far away.
Thomas said the only practical way of communicating
with his family was by mail, which took 10-14 days to
travel one way. He said he did have a couple of phone
conversations with family, but it was expensive and
difficult to arrange.
Thomas says its hard to pick just one favorite story
from his time there because so many things happened.
He mentions the time he was ready to come back
to the States for good and accidentally put all of his
travelers checks in a package that he was mailing. He
didnt realize it for three days and had to travel through
most of the country back to find the person he left the
package with. Fortunately, the man hadnt mailed the
package because Thomas didnt leave him enough

ALUMNI CLUBS STAY CONNECTED

CONNECTED
Alumni Clubs are currently being formed in the
Inland Northwest and Treasure Valley areas and will
provide a network for alumni to keep in touch with
the college as well as each other.
We hope to provide a social outlet for Lewis-Clark
State College graduates living in these areas, by
assisting in the organization of activities and other
special events throughout the year. Any and all L-C
graduates and their families are welcome at our
events. We encourage anyone living in the Inland
Northwest and Boise areas to become involved in
the chapter in any way you can.

Club is three-fold. First, create an association that

will help increase the awareness in our community
of the strengths of attending Lewis-Clark State.
Second, provide a networking group or association
that can assist each other in achieving their
personal career goals. And third, develop a way that
past alumni can give back to the college and help
others obtain the college education they felt was
only a dream. We want to make attending college a
reality, not just a dream.
L-C is a tremendous college and I am very proud
to say I am a Warrior. Many people have asked me
why did you want to volunteer and co-chair and
start up an Alumni Club such as this? I have to
say this is due to how I was raised. I was always
taught to give back to society and make it a better
place then when I started. If we all could give just a
little extra, I can
only imagine how
much better of a
world we could
create. I would
like to encourage
all to consider
supporting this
association in any
way you can.

SPORTSbriefs
LCSC athletic teams continue to hold their own against
the nations best NAIA programs. For the second
straight year, nine of the 10 programs have been
ranked in the NAIAs Top 25 poll, and two baseball
and womens basketball are among the top 10. And
our athletes are just as competitive in the classroom
as they are on the field of competition. Several were
named to either the Presidents List or Deans List for
the 2005 Fall semester.
Bill and Faye Seehafer of Lewiston have become
the first Lifetime members of the Warrior Athletic
Association with a generous gift of $10,000.
Bill and Faye are both retired and are big supporters of
the college. Bill also serves on the LCSC Foundation Board
and completed the Portfolio Program at the college.
By becoming Lifetime members, the Seehafers receive
full benefits of the WAA, including a lifetime all-sport
general admission pass to Warrior athletic home events.
Heres a trivia tip that you may be able to stump fellow
LCSC alum in the years to come. What one thing changed
when the gym floor of the Activity Center had to be
refinished last fall?
Answer: The L-C logo at midcourt.
When the gym opened for play at the Activity Center, the
logo in the tip-off circle was the interlocking L and C,
which is commonly used by the baseball team on its hats.
When the gym opened in January of 2005, LCSC
officials knew the gym floor would have to be refinished
again, but it would wait until summer so not to interrupt
athletic and intramural events, or classes. However,
the finish coat applied during the summer failed to seal
properly and the gym had to be shut down during the
fall of 2005 for safety concerns. The old finish had to be
sanded off, which removed the logos and paint.
When repainting the floor, LCSC athletic officials
decided to put the new LCSC athletic logo in the tip-off
circle. The new floor was ready by early November in
time for basketball season.

32

LCSC is host to the popular AAU Snake River

Shootout youth basketball tournaments, which
serves as a fundraiser for the athletic department.
Teams from Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana
participate in the tournaments, which are held over six
weekends for various grade classifications.
This years tournaments started in late January and
will continue through the second weekend in April.
Three courts at LCSC are utilized the main court
features two full-length courts going side-to-side, and
the court in the auxiliary gym. Other courts within a
2-mile radius of campus also are used.
Dont forget to check out the Warrior online auction
for your chance to bid on some wonderful LCSC
athletic apparel and other items. Recent items up for
bid included a nights stay at the York House and a
rental of the Hospitality Room at the Activity Center
that overlooks both the basketball courts and Harris
Field during an event.
For more information on the auction or to see what
items are up for bid, visit the online auction Web site
at http://www.lcscauction.com/
Anyone wanting a part of the old Warrior Gym floor
can now buy a piece of history and help support the
Warrior mens basketball team at the same time.
Pieces of wood from the old floor have been turned
into framed collectors items and are selling for $100
apiece. The wood is a replica of the old gym floor. The
item is approximately 10.75 inches wide by 6 inches
tall.
The proceeds are being used for scholarships and
travel expenses for the LCSC mens basketball team.

Take Home the Bronze

For anyone interested in owning a part of LCSC, three
miniature statues that are replicas of the life sized
Centennial Mall statue are on sale for $3,500 apiece.
The bronze statues, which are approximately 18 inches
in height, are exact copies of the Centennial Mall statue
on the LCSC campus, which was unveiled in 1994. The
statue, with incredible detail and realism, portrays Nez
Perce Chief Twisted Hair, his son Lawyer, Meriwether
Lewis, and William Clark.
The statue closely replicates the environment the
explorers would have found in their initial meeting
with the Nez Perce during their historic expedition in
1804-1806. The expedition was suffering from illness
and exhaustion when it met with the Nez Perce on
the upper reaches of the Clearwater River. It was a
fortuitous meeting that was critical to the success of the
exploration.

The statue depicts Twisted Hair, Lewis, and Clark

engaged in a conversation about directions, while
Lawyer, portrayed at about age 8, inspects the camas
roots and fish on the ground.
One of the three bronze statues is currently on display
at the LCSC Center for Arts & History, located at 415
Main Street in Lewiston.
For more information on the miniature statues or to
purchase one, contact the College Advancement Office
at (208) 792-2458.

Doug Hyde, a prominent Native American artist and Nez

Perce descendant, created the life-like statues and also
the miniature statues. He did much research on the
project and worked with tribal representatives to create
images that maintain the integrity and authenticity of
the individuals in the statue.

Forecast
on Facilities
Lewis-Clark State College expects
to have more students living near
campus this fall and perhaps even
more in the near future, according
to a draft Campus Master Plan put
together by LCSC administrators.

expect that to be a problem. The

college currently has 59 students
being housed at the Red Lion and
that agreement ends this May. Also,
there are more than 100 people on
a housing waiting list.

The Campus Master Plan will

outline major renovations and new
construction projects LCSC hopes to
take on by 2010. The draft plan will
be presented to campus soon and
all identified projects will need state
approval. Some are currently on the
states permanent building list.

Ideally, LCSC officials would like

to move the 92 students out of
Talkington Hall to make way for its
renovation, which is the No. 3 item
on colleges major renovations and
new projects list.

Two new privately-owned student

housing projects are expected to
be finished by the start of the 2006
Fall semester and LCSC will manage
both sites. One is an 88-bed unit
that is being built by McCann
Limited Partnership on Fourth Street
across from the LCSC Williams
Conference Center. The second
project, being built by Conover Bond
of Spokane, could house as many
as 116 students in the Lewiston
downtown area on a development
on 5th and Main streets.

To no ones surprise, the No. 1 item

on the list is more parking areas.
LCSC is adding 30 more paved
parking spots to a small lot near
the College Advancement office and
LCSC Activity Center. LCSC officials
also are talking with Lewiston
city officials about the possibility
of turning a couple of blocks of
Fourth Street, near the new student
housing project, into oneway traffic and allowing
diagonal parking, which
would increase parking
availability on the west
side of campus.

The agreements with both facilities

ensure LCSC assumes no risk in the
development. There is no guarantee
that the college will be able to fill all
the rooms, but LCSC officials dont

Another exciting project,

which is No. 2 on the
projects list, is a new
Health Science Building,
which is drawing interest

34

from area officials and state

politicians, but must reach the top
of the states building list in order
for it to become a reality.
The Health Science Building would
be home to the Nursing Program
and allow it to handle more students
to meet the growing need for
medical help both regionally and in
the state. A new building would cost
an estimated $16 million according
to LCSC officials, but a site hasnt
been determined.
Also on LCSCs list of renovations
and construction projects is an
upgrade and renovation to the
Silverthorne Theatre, offices and
classrooms in the Administration
Building, renovation of Spalding
Hall, remodel and expansion of the
Old Science Building and renovation
and purchase of the Music Building.

An Alumni Perspective
from a different angle

Since graduation in December 2003 I have been

blessed with good fortune. I have worked in Kuwait as a
teacher for the last two and a half years. I have visited
many different countries in Europe, the Middle East,
and Southeast Asia. I have taken courses at Kuwait
University to read, write, and speak Arabic. I have been
able to meet some great people and form long lasting
friendships. I know that all this would not have been
possible if I had not received an education from LewisClark State College.
I never thought that I would be a teacher, but when the
opportunity presented itself I could not refuse. I thought
a chance to work overseas and experience a different
culture was something I couldnt pass up. In February
2004 I was offered a job to work in Kuwait, teaching
all subjects to 5th graders. I have been teaching ever
since and I love it. I love seeing a student understand
something for the first time, and knowing that I helped
make that moment possible feels great.
Once I moved to Kuwait it took a while to get adjusted
to the people and the culture. I had some major culture
shock when I first arrived. I had never traveled outside
of America or Canada and Kuwait is very different
from North America. Kuwait is an Arab Muslim country
which is totally opposite from living in Lewiston, Idaho.
Muslims pray 5 times a day and there is a call to
prayer from the local Mosque when it is time to pray.
The first call to prayer happens around five oclock in
the morning. It used to wake me up every morning but
now I sleep right through it.
Kuwait is a very conservative society. One of the things
that used to catch me off guard was seeing women
dressed in abayas which are all black overgarments
that cover the whole body. Sometimes the temperature
in Kuwait can reach over 120 degrees so I can only
imagine how uncomfortable it must be for the women
to wear. Another piece of clothing that is worn by the
women is the hijab which covers only the head. These
clothes are worn by some women to conceal the body
and hair from men outside of the family. However, in
Kuwait unlike Saudi Arabia women are not required
to wear either the Abaya or hijab, but the majority of
women do wear one or both. Also, many women do not
touch men who are not their husbands. This made for
some awkward moments because I am used to shaking
hands with people that I meet for the first time. I had to
train myself not to shake hands with women unless they
extended their hand to me first.

Many men wear the traditional dress called the

dishdasha. This an all white piece of clothing that
covers the body. Sometimes men wear a piece of cloth
on their heads called the gutra, which is either folded
over the head or worn freely draping down. I have
actually worn a dishdasha on occasion and I must say it
is a little difficult to walk up and down stairs.
Teaching in a Muslim country does have its advantages.
There are many holidays in the Muslim religion which
allows me time to travel. Also, there is the holy month
of Ramadan when all Muslims from the age of thirteen
and up most fast from dawn to dusk. During this month
school is only in session for half the day.
Living in the Middle East is great for travel. Kuwait is
in close proximity to Europe, Asia, and Africa. Since
moving to Kuwait I have visited Bahrain, Palestine,
Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, Sri Lanka, Cambodia, Thailand,
Netherlands, and Italy. I absolutely love traveling. I
would like to visit all of the countries in the Middle East
to make a comparison between the people from country
to country. I would love to go to Dubai in the United Arab
Emirates and work as a teacher. For now though, I have
signed on for another year here in Kuwait.
I know that I am very lucky to have had the chance of
working overseas at a young age. This is something
that I could see myself doing for sometime. I would
recommend it to anybody who has the desire to
experience different cultures. It has also made me very
grateful to be an American. There are so many people
that I have met that would love to get the chance to live
and work in America. Some of these people ask me
Why did you leave? I reply I can always go back. I
am looking forward to coming home to Lewiston in the
summer and seeing my friends and family, and catching
up on all the things that have happened since I have
been away.

Spring 2005 Journey

Alumni Recruiting
Network
It is no secret that our alumni are some of the best
representatives of LCSC, especially when it comes to
referrals of prospective students. We are proud of the
commitment and continued support Alumni provide.
Recently Matt Beers 03, Heidi Beers 04, Robbie Reno 05
and Katie Rutan 05 assisted the Office of New Student
Recruitment with an information session in Boise. They
provided high school juniors and seniors with information on
admissions, financial aid, scholarships and residence halls. Heidi noted I want to make students aware of the
quality education and the experiences they can get at LCSC. Its also a way for me to give back to the college.
Hannah Josephson 05 helped with a high school visit to Meridian Medical Arts Charter High School.
Prospective students listened to her experiences as a nursing student on the LCSC campus.
The Office of New Student Recruitment would like to identify LCSC alumni who are interested with general
recruitment activities, such as college fairs, information nights and scholarship award nights. Training will be
provided for those interested. For more information please contact Soo Lee Bruce-Smith at
1-800-933-5272 ext. 2378 or [email protected].

Spring 2006 Journey

This Gift Gives Back!

What if there was a way to arrange for a dependable
supplemental income that would continue for as long as
you live? What if this same plan freed you from worries
about outliving your resources, fluctuating interest
rates, and the performance of your investments?
And what if there were a way to do this while making
meaningful charitable gifts? There is such a plan! For
many years, charitable gift annuities have offered a way
to supplement your income, reduce gift, estate, and
income taxes, and make significant gifts. Under the
terms of a gift annuity, you make a gift of cash or other
property through a simple agreement which provides
you with regular payments that never decrease in size
or frequency, regardless of changes in the economy.
Gift annuities offer many other benefits, too. You can
provide for the future of Lewis-Clark State College while
you accomplish other important personal and financial

goals. I will be pleased to assist you and your financial

advisors. For more information without obligation,
please contact Polly Blasko, Lewis-Clark State College
Foundation Executive Director, at 208-792-2458 or
e-mail [email protected].
Payment rates are calculated based on your age(s) and
life expectancy(s). Rates are subject to change.

Alumni Submissions Wanted

In the course of teaching interpersonal communication classes over the last several years, I have included one
or two writing exercises, asking students to describe various aspects of their intrapersonal communication, with
the intention of creating an awareness of self-communication and inner dialog. Out of these assignments I have
been privileged enough to have had students share some of the most moving stories which gave rise to the project
I have set upon: which is to solicit submissions from current and former Lewis-Clark State College students and
publish them in a series of books.
Each book will explore a different aspect of our inner selves. The theme of this first book will be The Child Within,
we all have an inner child who influences our behavior and ultimately shapes the decisions and choices we make.
Who is the child within you? What are the conversations like? Do you have a misbehaving or well behaved child?
Is your child allowed to play? Does your child run free or sit looking out of the window watching
life pass by?
The only criterion for submittal is the author is a present or past student of Lewis-Clark State
College. Submissions should be original, unpublished work and may take the form of a
short story, an essay, a poem, photos, drawings, etc. as long as the theme deals with the
inner child.
Prose submissions should not exceed 3,500 words and please limit poetry submission
to three only.
All submissions must have a cover sheet with the following information: title, word
count, authors name, address, phone number, e-mail address (if available), year (or
expected year) of graduation from LCSC, and program or discipline of study.
Go to http://www.lcsc.edu/alumni for more details.
