You CAN be a Beaver and Roadrunner at the Same Time! Students enrolling at LBCC can also start their four-year degree at OSU at the same time – for a fraction of the cost.
In high school, Jennifer Smucker liked all things math. She really enjoyed helping to teach other students. After completing her first year at LBCC, she decided to change her major from engineering to mathematics, because what she really wanted was to go back to her community to teach math. Next fall, Jennifer will transfer to OSU to earn her bachelor’s degree in math, with plans to earn her master’s in both math and math education. “The degree partnership program is great! I can take classes at LBCC at a lower cost, and the transition to OSU is much easier,” said Jennifer. “With smaller class sizes at LBCC, it feels a bit more personable and you get to know your instructors. I really love that.”
A Clear Path to Follow
A National Model The LBCC/OSU Degree Partnership (DPP) began in 1998, and was the first of its kind in Oregon. This innovative partnership has served as a model for institutions in Oregon and across the nation. First open to students majoring in agricultural sciences, business and engineering, the program now includes all undergraduate majors pursuing their bachelor’s degree. DPP provides a pathway for students to complete a four-year degree quicker and more affordably, allowing students to be jointly admitted to both institutions. Approximately 2,000 students enroll in the LBCC/OSU degree partnership program each year. Since it began, more than 20,000 students have enjoyed the benefits of being an LBCC/OSU degree partnership student.
The LBCC/OSU degree partnership program is open to all undergraduate students pursuing a transfer degree at Oregon State – and the advantages are numerous. Here’s how the program works: Students enroll at LBCC to take their core classes -- such as science and math, engineering, business, foreign languages, agriculture and more – and enjoy LBCC’s lower tuition and smaller class sizes. They then transfer those classes to Oregon State to finish their bachelor’s degree. The more credits a student enrolls in at LBCC, the more cost savings they will see.
Advisors at both schools ensure a collaborative path so that students get the exact courses they need to meet degree requirements. Financial Aid even applies to both schools at the same time. “Being a Degree Partnership student gives you the opportunity to transition from one school to the other at your own pace,” said Gavin Carlisle, a Business Administration and Accounting major. “I would highly recommend this to anyone who plans to get a bachelor’s degree.” 2

“
Along the way, students can take full advantage of both institutions – even living in OSU student housing while taking classes at LBCC, with access to the Dixon Recreation Center, athletics and more. The library, advising, computers, tutoring options, facilities and are fully accessible at both OSU and LBCC.

LBCC Works to Open Even More Options
~ Gavin Carlisle Business Administration and Accounting major
OSU isn’t the only option for students who want to get started through LBCC. The college also has a partnership in place with Oregon Technology, which includes degree options in more than 30 fields.
“
“
Being a Degree Partnership student gives you the opportunity to transition from one school to the other at your own pace.
And this fall, LBCC is announcing a NEW partnership with Western Oregon University (WOU). The WOU agreement opens doors to degree options such as Criminal Justice, Business, Education, Communication, Computer Science, Psychology, Exercise Science, and Community Health, with more majors added in the future. “Ultimately it’s about helping students get the education they need more quickly, affordably, and within a combination of environments that work best for them,” said Katie Winder, Dean of LBCC Arts, Social Sciences, and Humanities. “We are so proud of LBCC’s role as a launching pad for thousands of people.”
We would love to talk to you! Want to take advantage of LBCC’s Degree Partnership Program?

PLAYING WITH THE PALETTE

A group of students gathered around Mark who demonstrated the six basic watercolor techniques.
“Once you learn the rules you can then start to challenge them. But first, you do need to learn the rules.” ~ Mark Allison
“Working with watercolor is kind of like driving in stop-and-go-traffic,” he told his students, “you have to kind of hurry along, and then wait for an area to dry.”
Mark Allison has been a Community Education instructor at LBCC for 25 years, a recipient of the 2003 Teacher of the Year award, and an accomplished artist. The son of a photographer/poet and a civil engineer, his life has been largely influenced by aesthetics, composition, and structure. He first stood at an easel when he was 5 years old, sparking what would become his lifelong passion.
He showed onlookers how to mix strong spectral colors to make other more muted colors. He mentioned things to consider when choosing colors. “The color yellow is considered a moodbrightener and muscle relaxant,” he told them. “Blue is calming and reduces heart rate and blood pressure so it’s a great color for a bedroom. Red does the opposite.” Looking at the palette in front of him, he pointed to an intense pink.
On an April morning, 15 people came to create, ages spanning from teenager to retiree. One painted a portrait of his sister’s dog for her birthday. Another painted his son’s ‘63 Chevy for his birthday. Someone else painted a landscape from a photo on her phone.
Around the classroom, Mark displayed paintings to show the effects of the various watercolor techniques he referred to. Many of the works used the techniques of Cubism, made famous by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque.
“The color of love,” he said, “it just opens your heart looking at it.”
Looking ahead at miles meandering no longer standing where I once stood where miles behind are lost
So here I am and there you are nearly far almost gone but right now we sit close in silence
Finding my way forward by crooked walk with awkward smile inch for foot feeling like a fool stumbling
Waiting until the words settle on my tongue the words that will change my direction the words that will guide my aimless wandering
Longing for the company of people, of passersby I suppose myself a trespasser amongst them
I part my lips and lick them wet preparing to speak
I am hardly here feeling forgettable maybe memorable like the most familiar stranger I cannot do this alone together is all it takes to make a difference to turn steps into strides
4
I can go everywhere if anywhere but nowhere without a friend by my side
Taking a shallow breath calming the quiver in my voice and swallowing the lump in my throat I turn to you and quietly I query “walk with me won’t you?”
Mark encouraged his students to understand the rules of design which are based on understanding of the physiology of the eye, and the psychology of perception. “Once you learn the rules you can then start to challenge them,” he told the class. “But first, you do need to learn the rules.”
His Drawing & Painting Studio class, one of several he teaches through Community Education, is designed for beginning to advanced artists to work on their own projects with Mark’s guidance when requested.
“If Anywhere But Nowhere”
“I often like using clean-edged geometric simplifications of forms,” he told his students. “Sharp edges and pointed shapes get the attention of both right and left hemispheres of the brain.”
With many accomplishments as an artist, Mark was selected to design the 2009 Fall Festival poster and has received the President’s Award from Oregon State University for a painting that is now in the permanent collection of OSU’s art in the College of Agricultural Sciences.

LBCC’S CHILDREN’S SHOWS HAVE DELIGHTED AUDIENCES SINCE
1976
A Tradition in Our Community For more than 40 years, the LBCC Children’s Show has brought culture and enrichment to area youth and their families, spanning generations of young students, parents, and grandparents. From the first show titled “Cinderella and Other Stories for Children,” performed in the spring of 1976, to this year’s show, the original play “Josephina Jordan, Junior Underwater Explorer, and the Mystery of the Plastic Fish,” LBCC has a long tradition of bringing live theater to children and adults alike.

This year, 3,500 Mid-Valley children and adults attended the 44th show, an original play written by LBCC Theater Director Dan Stone. The show marked the first time the college has staged a locally written children’s show.
LBCC’s Theater Program offers field trips for elementary schools to attend the show, and holds two Saturday performances that are open to the public. For many, “Our Theater for attending LBCC’s children’s show Children program is their first experience with live theater. takes pride in
providing enriching and engaging cultural opportunities to kids and families of the Willamette Valley.” ~ Dan Stone
Stone began directing theater at LBCC in 2010. Under his guidance, the children’s show continues to thrive. “Our Theater for Children program takes pride in providing enriching and engaging cultural opportunities to kids and families throughout the Willamette Valley,” he said.

Coming in February 2020:
Our 45th Children’s Show, created by LBCC theater students under the direction of Dan Stone, is based on the origin story of the character Scarecrow from The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.

LBCC’s First-Ever Gala Raises a Record-Breaking $146,000 for Student Success!
The stars really came out on April 6th in downtown Albany! More than 200 people gathered for “One Night in Old Hollywood,” the LBCC Foundation’s first-ever Gala dinner and auction to benefit student scholarships and success programs. With the help of more than 250 businesses and caring individuals, the event raised $146,000 in total revenue – a record for a single fundraising event for the LBCC Foundation. Celebrating the Golden Age of movies, guests donned their red-carpet best and gathered at the historic Flinn Block Building in downtown Albany to turn the spotlight on higher education. The event featured live music and Hollywood-themed entertainment, as well as a live auction that focused on raising critical funds to remove barriers to college. Mark Wiebe, a second-year LBCC student majoring in mechanical engineering, gave the keynote address for the evening. Wiebe overcame incredible obstacles to attend LBCC, including homelessness. A scholarship from the LBCC Foundation made the difference. Now Wiebe is not only thriving, but he also has earned the role of President in LBCC’s Honor Society, and plans to transfer to a university next year. “I know now that there is a purpose for me,” said Wiebe. “I cannot say it more plainly than this. . . I am here because of you.” “The tremendous gift of generosity shown by our community through this event will mean even more people like Mark will come to know their purpose in life too,” said Jennifer Boehmer, Executive Director of the LBCC Foundation. “And when our students succeed, the entire community benefits.” Special thanks to Papé for serving as champion sponsor this year.
