While most of the attention of the administrative staff was directed toward long range planning, campus development, and educational program development, short range needs prompted the implementation of a schedule for evening classes. Although i t was the original intent of the board and administration to delay the offering of courses until the F a l l of 19C9, when f u l l - t i m e faculty would be on hand, requests for study opportunities f r o m citizens of the college d i s t r i c t prompted the establishment of a schedule of evening classes which were taught i n Manistee, Ludington and Scottville high school f a c i l i t i e s . �WEST SHORE COMMUNITY COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT July 1, 1968 - June 30, 1969 - Personnel Commencing July 1 and August 1, 1968 James Rassi, dean of student personnel and Gerald Hopper, director of instructional media assumed t h e i r duties and brought the professional administrative staff to f u l l compliment. The administrative roster reads as follows: John M . Eaton, Ph. D. Robert D. Bradley, M . A . James Rassi, M . A . , M . A . John Schwetz, M . A . Gerald Hopper, M . L . S . - president and acting dean of instruction - dean of business services - dean of student personnel services - dean of vocational-technical studies - d i r e c t o r , instructional media center Staffing for the evening college courses was accomplished through hiring p a r t - t i m e instructional personnel f r o m business, industry and secondary schools within the college d i s t r i c t . Personnel serving the college as p a r t - time instructors included: John B r a s t r o m Jean Brown Jean Case Clark Hamilton Bert Kelley H a r r y Nuckolls Wilma Paulus Donald Strouf Judith Suetter Leo Teholiz Dorothy Trebilcock - Business Psychology Psychology Technologies Social Studies Communications Speech Mathematics Social Studies Art Communications �Several months of the year were spent i n pursuing interview schedules which lead to the appointment of the f u l l - t i m e faculty chosen to organize, w r i t e and implement programs of instruction i n September 1969. I n order to achieve a good m i x of educational experiences and to avoid p r o v i n c i a l i s m instructional staff r e c r u i t i n g was not l i m i t e d to Michigan but involved i n t e r views on university campuses i n Indiana, I l l i n o i s , Iowa, Minnesota, M i s s o u r i , New York, North Dakota, Chio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Dakota and Wisconsin. Sixteen w e l l qualified teachers have b.een hired to commence f u l l - t i m e employment with the College i n September 1969. A chart of the administrative organization of the College may be found i n the appendixes. < Curriculum and Instruction Evening college classes were instituted i n business, communications, a r t , mathematics and h i s t o r y during each of the three terms of the year. I n service and orientation sessions were held for the instructors each t e r m i n order to establish a proper environment for implementing the f i r s t courses taught by the College. M r . Hopper outlined plans for inaugurating l i b r a r y and instructional media services and instituted a system of l i b r a r y m a t e r i a l selection through Choice "C-pening Day" collection and through communication with each of the faculty members as soon as they had accepted employment at West Shore. The Instructional Media Center was the f i r s t educational function and facility to be located on the college campus. -2- The f a r m home on the �former Hans Jensen property was renovated and made into the office of the Instructional Media Center director and the receiving station for books and other instructional media. As faculty v/ere hired for the F a l l t e r m 1969 M r . Schwetz and I sought immediately to cominunicate with them relative to the development of course objectives and outlines, instructional equipment for classrooms and laboratories and textbook selection. Thus, most of the facultj' h a v e mpde contributions to c u r r i c u l u m development p r i o r to their a r r i v a l . Through joint planning and considei-ahle c o o p e r a t i o n b e t w e e n the instructional deans and M r . Rassi we organized, edited and published the f i r s t general catalog for West Shore Community College. The catalog, complete with financial information, academic r u l e s , graduation r e q u i r e ments, program outlines, course descriptions and attractive i l l u s t r a t i o n s has been distributed throughout the college d i s t r i c t and to a l l four-year colleges across the state. College Facilities The bid for construction of the Student Services Building was awarded to A l s t r o m Construction of Muskegon on February 25, 1969. Inasmuch as i t appeared impossible to accelerate construction enough to complete the Student Services building for occupancy by September, 1969, the administration sought and found temporary facilities to accommodate classroom, laboratory and office needs of the College. �The $750, 000 bond issue was sold on December 12, 1968 following the organization of a vast amount of supportive m a t e r i a l and numerous conferences with the financial advise of Robert Russell f r o m the F i r s t of Michigan Corporation. E. J . Johnson, Duane Parkes, B r u c e Draper and Robert Bradley made contact with Moody, Standard & Poors i n New York to obtain " A " and " A A " ratings respectively. The Business Cffice has assisted the deans and Instructional Media Center director i n filing statements and proposals seeking funding for special projects supported by the State and Federal government. A n accounting of the audited budget for the past year m a y be found in the appendixes. Student Personnel Much of the energy of the dean of student personnel was devoted to establishing liaison between West Shore Community College and the area high school principals, counselors and students. Two students f r o m each of the high schools i n the college d i s t r i c t were invited to serve on an a d visory committee to the dean i n establishing guidelines for a student government organization and i n an effort to promote high school student interest i n the college. M r . Rassi also established contact with most of the state colleges and universiti es i n order to institute lines of communication and articulation. �Financial aid through grants and scholarships to students were arranged by the student personnel office. Attendant to this operation the systems and forms necessary for application for admission, financial aid, etc. were also designed. Through the efforts of M r . Rassi and the student advisory committee M r . Leo Teholiz, p a r t - t i m e a r t i n s t r u c t o r , was asked to submit drawings of a proposed seal for West Shore Community College. The design selected has been used i n the College Catalog ( a facsimile may be found i n the appendixes). Three hundred eighty-five students were enrolled i n credit courses during the year. These three hundred eighty-five students generated one thousand four hundred t h i r t y - n i n e credit hours and 30. 93 FYES. Community Services The five members of the administrative staff were kept busy as guest speakers for clubs, civic organizations and school groups during the past year. Many of us were privileged to give commencement taiks i n area high schools. •A steady flow of news releases was provided the area news media. Good reception and good'use has been made of releases by the radio and newspaper editors. Community service activities w i l l be expanded to include non-credit courses, f i l m programs and other special event activities when f u l l - t i m e faculty are here to assist i n the planning and implementation of these services. �A special "Dedication of the Campus" and flag r a i s i n g ceremony was held on the campus site on Sunday, May 4, 1969.

The college district was founded on March 6, 1967 when the voters in the Manistee and Mason Intermediate School Districts voted to establish a community college district; thus four months of organizational activity occurred during the 1966-67 fiscal year. Attendant to the establishment of the district, a seven member board of trustees was elected and officially installed in office on March 17, 1967. Members of this first board of trustees were: Barry J. Bourdo, O. J. DeJonge, Bruce R. Draper, Mrs. Ellen M. Elder, Mrs. Helen D. McCarthy, A. Ivan Pelter and E, Dean Raven. O. J. DeJonge was selected to serve as Chairman of the Board with Barry Bourdo in the office of Vice Chairman, and Mrs. Helen McCarthy and Bruce Draper appointed to the offices of Secretary and Treasurer. From April through June the Board of Trustees was heavily involved in meetings with officials and consultants from the Department of Higher Education and special consultants from the University Offices of Community College Cooperation. These educational consultants, along with special legal counsel, assisted the Trustees in their efforts to establish bylaws to govern the activities of the Board, name the college, request �the county treasurer to levy the voted 1. 5 mill tax, establish liaison with the State Department of Education, secure information concerning the selection of the campus site, secure legislative grant of funds for campus planning, initiate an area vocational education survey, develop a budget for the 1967-68 fiscal year, appoint a screening committee of consultants to assist in the selection of the college president, and commence interviews toward the selection of an architectural firm. This busy schedule of events and meetings was a prelude of activities and involvement the Board of Trustees was to continue through the first quarter of the 1967-68 fiscal year. �INTRODUCTION The review of activities concerned with the development and planning of West Shore Community College contained in the following pages will acquaint the reader with the manner in which the Board and administration have shared responsibilities in the early stages of organizing this new institution of higher education, and illustrate the many activities and community service functions performed by the administration. Citizens of Manistee and Mason Counties may be proud of the record their elected representatives, the Board of Trustees, have made in planning the college and the uncounted hours of time they have devoted to their assignment. Recognition should also be made for the administrative counsel and assistance afforded by Leonard Bestrom, Superintendent of the Mason County Intermediate School District, Maurice Goodreau, Superintendent of the Manistee Intermediate School District, and Charles Boyer, a member of the State Board for Community and Junior Colleges and a citizen of Manistee. �WEST SHORE COMMUNITY COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT July 1, 1967 - June 30, 1968 As outlined in the preface of this report, many months of organizational planning by the Trustees for West Shore Community College were accomplished prior to the beginning of the 1967-68 fiscal year. The first three months of the year were a continuation of these efforts on the part of the Board of Trustees. During this period, the Board approved a budget of $226, 650 - $58, 650 for operations and $168, 000 for capital outlay. Through the months of July and August the Board continued its search for a president, interviewed architects, engaged the services of Drs. Leu and Smith from Michigan State University to conduct a site selection survey, and implemented steps to secure a $4, 000 grant from the State Vocational Office to conduct a survey and study of the area vocational-technical education needs. In the pursuit of these several accomplishments, it was the announced intention of the Board that the college be opened to students in the fall of 1969. The Board authorized Dr. Max Smith and Burton Brackney from Michigan State University to proceed with the area vocational study in the period between July and December 1967. -1- �The firm of Johnson, Johnson & Roy, Inc., site planners and landscape architects, was contracted to assist the Board in site selection activities and the development of a plan for the long-range use of the site to be selected. Following the recommendations of the presidential candidate screening committee, applicants for the Office of President were interviewed and it was subsequently announced that John M. Eaton, from Douglas, Arizona, had accepted the appointment as president for West Shore Community College. Dr. Eaton and his family scheduled their move to the college district in October 1967. Upon the receipt of the site selection survey and recommendations from consultants, Leu and Smith, in October, it was decided that more investigation and study of suitable sites was in order, for the Board did not find the consultant's report and recommendation acceptable to their needs. This action prompted an eight month study of several proposed site locations. The site selection problem was resolved by a five affirmative - two negative vote on May 22, 1968 at a special meeting of the Board of Trustees. The campus site, located three miles north and three miles west of Scottville, is in Section 27 of Victory Township and is comprised of some 375 acres, bordered on the north by the south branch of the Lincoln River, on the east by Amber Road, on the south by Sugar Grove Road, and on the west by Stiles Road. -2- �In September of the year 1967, Trustee Bourdo moved from the college district and tendered his resignation. The unfulfilled term of office, resulting from the acceptance of Mr. Bourdo's resignation, was assumed by John L. Ham following a unanimous motion of the Board of Trustees to seat him. Subsequent to Mr. Bourdo's resignation and Mr. Ham's appointment, Trustee E. Dean Raven was elected to the office of Vice Chairman left vacant by virtue of the resignation. General Functions In the nine month period in which the President was employed during the 1967-68 fiscal year, the college administrative offices were established and organized. Through the assistance of the Scottville Chamber of Commerce, a suite of offices was secured in November 1967 and the President and his secretary, Mrs. Marjorie Knudsen, established the operation of college organizational activities at 10lj North Main Street in Scottville. In addition to the office space secured for establishing the first center of operations, the college has made extensive use of temporary office facilities and regular board of trustees' meeting accommodations in the Mason County Intermediate School District offices and the State Savings Bank of Scottville. Funds to support the area vocational school study were secured and -3- �the study implemented and completed by Burton Brackney from Michigan State University and Arnold Carlson from Scottville, with clerical work completed by Mrs. Sadie Riffle. As a follow up to this study project, the college President visited all of the major business and industrial leaders who participated in the study. The college staff edited, published and distributed the Final Report and a special Summary Report of the Area Vocational Study to all area schools and study participants. This report will serve as a guideline for the college and area high schools in the future planning and establishing of cooperatively implemented vocational and technical education courses for students in both secondary school and college level programs. In the first weeks of his service to the college, the President visited the State Office of the Department of Education, Bureau of Higher Education, the Bureau of the Budget, and the offices of the executive secretary for the Michigan Council of Community College Administrators to establish liaison between the several Lansing based offices and West Shore Community College. Communication with all state colleges and universities was initiated in order that organizational plans for West Shore Community College and appropriate approval documents for the transfer of student credits could be secured from the baccalaureate degree offering institutions. A special Institutional Analysis Report for initial recognition by the �North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools was prepared and submitted. As a result of this report, a North Central examiner visited the college and evaluated the staff, the campus and building plans, and the institutional analysis document with the result that West Shore Community College was awarded Correspondent status with the North Central Association. Personnel In an effort to bring professional talent to the planning and organizational stages of West Shore Community College at the earliest practical time, the President initiated a search for competent and experienced personnel to serve the college. The administrative areas for which special leadership was needed included the areas of business services, technical-vocational education, student personnel services, and librarianship. Two of these positions were staffed in early 1968 when Robert Bradley assumed the duties of the Dean of Business Services in January and John Schwetz began work as the Dean of Technical-Vocational Curricula in March. James Rassi and Gerald Hopper were secured as Dean of Student Personnel and Director of Instructional Media r e spectively, however, their assumption of duties was not scheduled to commence until the first months of the 1968-69 fiscal year. -5- �Subsequent to the employment of these key administrators, careful selection of mature and competent clerical assistance was secured. From time to time during the balance of the year, special consultant help from the State Vocational Office, Michigan State University, vendors, and other community colleges was used to augment and assist the professional staff with planning activities. Curriculum and Instruction In preparing an initial program of instruction for the college, it was necessary to settle upon a philosophy of education and a general plan for instruction. The prologue to the policies of the Board of Trustees presents the following statement of educational philosophy from which the aims and objectives and the instructional program plans have taken their direction: West Shore Community College, as a comprehensive community college, is dedicated to the service of its community. The college shall make education beyond the high school level available to all students interested in, and capable of, benefiting from such a program of higher education. In addition, it shall provide the program and facility for an area vocational school of both secondary school and college levels. The quality and effectiveness of instruction offered by the college is important to all those interested in higher education - students, teachers, administrators, alumni, and the general public. It is the responsibility of the administration of the college to facilitate instruction and lead its staff and students to personal and group fulfillment in their educational endeavors. Free communication, -6- �a free flow of ideas and feelings among the administration, the faculty, the students, and the community is essential for the realization of personal and institutional goals. A review of the findings presented in the College Feasibility Study and the Area Vocational Study also served to direct the staff planning toward the initial program of instruction to be implemented* The curricular offerings which were outlined included a balance between academic transfer offerings and a carefully selected group of vocational-technical studies. As plans for programs developed, an instruction philosophy was also generated. The recruiting of faculty members for West Shore will place an emphasis upon selecting teaching personnel with a knowledge of, and an appreciation for, the comprehensive community college philosophy. John Schwetz, in his office as the Dean of Technical-Vocational Curricula, has established and met with a number of advisory committees who will continue to serve the college by examining and reviewing proposed technical and vocational programs. The dean has also developed a schedule for the development and implementation of technical-vocational programs suggested by the Area Vocational Study pertinent to the West Shore Community College service area. Application procedures were started with the State Vocational Office and the Bureau of Higher Education concerning program offerings in practical nursing, machine tool technology and business. Other program, -7- �equipment and staffing approval request forms have been submitted to the state offices for approval for the 1969-70 college year. The continuing development of the educational plan for West Shore will challenge faculty and administration to search for ways in which meaningful educational experiences can be made available to all students through a variety of learning situations. College Facilities During the several months during which the Board of Trustees conducted evaluations of campus sites, the administration served both the Board and the professional site planners through the collection of data, charts, maps, etc. In addition, the administration provided the site planners with long-range institutional philosophy reviews, educational plans, and land use ideas to assist them in their site development studies and long-range planning activities. The winter months of the 1967-68 college year were spent interviewing a number of architects. Following the interviews, visits were made to the sites of recent facilities planned and engineered by the architectural i firms which had been rated highest on the evaluation made at the time of the interviews. In March, the administration recommended that the Board contract for the services of the firm of Vander Meiden, Koteles, and Associates, Inc. from Grand Haven, Michigan for the first phases of -8- �campus development and building construction. A five year plan for construction of educational facilities and campus development was made to follow the educational plan. The first and second phases of construction were outlined and detail work, following educational specifications, was started on phase I - a student services building. This phase I building will house all the initial instructional, administration and student activity services of the college. (See appendix A.) Business Services Among the several duties and accomplishments of the Office of Business Services were the development of a long-range plan for capital development, the establishing of the college accounting system, budget proposals for the 1968-69 and 1969-70 fiscal years, the purchasing of office furniture, equipment and supplies, the selection of an auditing firm, the initiation of a study for an employees' fringe benefit program and the organization of personnel office functions. (Budget information may be found in appendix B.) In addition, much work and planning with the Vocational Dean, the President and the architects relative to campus and educational facility development was accomplished by the Dean of Business Services. -9- �Student Personnel The activities directly concerned with student personnel functions were limited during the 1967-68 college year inasmuch as the appointment of the Dean of Student Personnel Services was not made until April. However, initial contacts with administrators and counselors in area secondary schools were made. The area vocational study and a survey of attitudes toward proposed admission policies for West Shore involved each area high school. An agreement to affiliate with the American College Testing Program allowing West Shore to participate with A. C. T. as a test center and as a recipient of research data and information concerning community college student evaluations was signed in December 1967. Community Services From December 1967 through June 1968, the administrative staff made over fifty speeches before school, community, club and service organizations throughout the college district. In addition, the President was invited to speak at three high school commencement programs. Robert Bradley, Dean of Business Services, acted as chairman for the Michigan Week Committee in Mason County. Soon after establishing offices in Scottville, the President invited all area news media representatives to confer with him concerning college -10- �plans for news release policies. At the same time, the press, radio and television representatives shared information with the college relative to their public service policies and their release and printing time schedules. It was announced that all official news stories initiated by the college would appear on a special form titled The Drift (see appendix C). The college accepted an honorary participating membership in the Scottville Chamber of Commerce and purchased membership in the Ludington Area Chamber of Commerce and the Manistee County Board of Commerce. Board Policies During the year the Board of Trustees adopted bylaws and policies governing its operation and approved policies concerned with personnel, instruction, student personnel, community services and business services. By special resolution the Trustees also declared willingness to annex the Pentwater School District to the West Shore Community College Dis trict. This petition to annex now awaits approval by the State Board of Education and the voters of the Pentwater School District. -11- �WEST SHORE COMMUNITY COLLEGE PHASE I - BUILDING CONSTRUCTION STUDENT SERVICES BUILDING The phase I plan of the campus master plan has led to the incorporation of the design of an all-purpose building which will be converted to a student services building when the facilities scheduled for phase II of construction are completed. Presently there are no facilities in the college district which would be suitable for full-time operation of the planned educational and community services programs of West Shore Community College. Therefore, the development of a campus facility which will provide accommodations for classrooms, laboratories, vocational-technical program shops, an instructional media center, student services facilities, counseling and administrative offices spaces, and auxiliary spaces. As suggested above, the instructional program uses of this facility will be moved to other buildings as the campus is developed and the student services functions will be expanded to accommodate food services, student activities and the campus bookstore.
