Workout program underway

Two currently employed college employees have been named to temporarily replace two administrators who requested to be transferred to faculty status back in December. Dr. David A Chappie will replace Dr. Ken Burns as interim assistant superintendent/vice president for student affairs, and Dr. Jan Moser will replace Dr. Theodore Kilman as interim assistant superintendent/vice president for instruction. The contracts of Dr. Chappie and Dr. Moser will be effective through June 30, 1988. Chappie's new assignment will begin on July 1, while Moser was appointed to the position back in January. Chappie will paid $57,746 and Moser will be paid $50,675. Chappie, who is currently dean of student services, is in his fourteenth year at Palomar. He has served in various student services positions, so he anticipates that there will be no problems fitting into his new administrative position. "It's nice to have people have the confidence in you to run the operation. I am very pleased," he said. The operation, as Chappie mentioned, revolves around the supervision of all student service departments such as counseling, financial aid and admissions. He would like to open up communication and to extend that communication to new areas. "I'd like to open up communication so everyone is free to look at what we're doing, like an open book. That's important." he said. From her office in the second story of the AA staff building, Dr. Moser oversees everything having to do with instruction. Unlike Chappie, she was given her position in January. Moser was originally hired in September as director of institutional research and planning. It was this experience that helped her to ease into her new positon. "It's a very different type of job. It helped me to gain the instructional perspective. It helped greatly to know the demands of this office." The instruction office oversees all instructional programs and services as well as the budget for instruction. Moser, in describing her responsibilities, lists the many duties and committees she oversees. She sums-up everything by saying 'The buck stops here as far as the running of the instructional part of this instituion." Like Chappie, Dr. Moser felt a great amount of support when she was informed that she would be given the interim position. "I had a certain sense of being overwhelmed by the enormous amount of support. I have a renewed sense of dedication to this institution and I will do the very best job possible." Both administrators will have the opportunity to apply for the permanent positions. As assistant superintendent/vice presidents, they serve directly under the superintendent/ president.

They came clad in sweats, prepared to reduce stress and burn off a few calories. But this was not an aerobics class. And this wasn't a Health 21 class. This was a regular meeting of the Palomar Governing Board. Along with Dr. George Boggs, Superintendent/ President and other college employees, members of the Board, some in sweats, others in their suits and ties, received a brief workout led by Judith Eberhart, a member of the Wellness Team. "As the leaders of our campus, we want you to know what we are doing as a team and give our mission support," she said before she led the exercises. Some of the goals of the Wellness program are to reduce health costs to the college and the individual, improve the overall health of college employees, create an awareness of a healthy lifestyles and attitudes, and establish an on-going program of classes, activities and support. To meet these goals, the Wellness Team will institute an evaluative fitness course for employees in the fall. Employees will receive individual evaluations and programs. Currently, the Wellness Team offers times where groups of staff can run, swim or walk. And the cafeteria now has green dots on packages that contain foods low in fat. There is also a campus wide "weigh off," where Eberhart says there are currently 50 staff members participating. If all goes according to plan, 500 pounds will be the total of the lost weight among staff members. Members of the Wellness Team are Dr. Margaret Gunther, Mike Curran, Kathy Pine, Bruce Swart, Marcia Doughty, Jean Ruff, Mike Gregoryk, Nick Paz, Dr. Jan Moser, Clarice Hankins and Eberhart.

James Lichnovsky has received the Art Department nomination for a $3,000 scholarship to the San Francisco Art Institute. Notification for the selection came at the most appropriate time, in early April, around his twenty-fourth birthday. Lichnovsky is majoring in drawing and painting. His talents, however, are varied and include sculpture and print-making. He also recently received a preliminary indication of an additional $1,000 scholarship to the print-making department of the Art Institute. At present, however, he is somewhat undecided as to whether or not he will accept it if offered. According to Val Sanders of the Art Department, Palomar is one of about 18 of 105 community colleges throughout the state requested and allowed by the Art Institute to select scholarship recipients. Therefore the nomination is tantamount to a confirmation. This honor accorded Palomar, is truly "an affirmation of trust," says Sanders. "It compliments the Art Department, not only for the caliber and training of its students, but also for its obviously excellent selection process."
